[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Both my kids got in to academic based magnet programs. We have never prepped them for a test. I wouldn't want my kids in these programs if they couldn't naturally do the work without intervention. Neither they nor I need that sort of stress. (I went to a magnet high school so I have some idea what it's all about. The kids who didn't need to prep always do better both academically and mentally.) [/quote]

I went to AAP when I was growing up and it's changed a lot since then.  It can be harder to get into with the new selection criteria, but with 20% of the kids going, it's not as difficult as it was back then.  I'm not worried about my kids being able to handle the work; it's fairly light compared to what we did as third graders. [/quote]

DP.  I went to a GT program in a different state but I've heard that the old AAP program was very hard, too hard. So I've been satisfied with the rigor of the program for my oldest DC. And for my younger DC, I'm not sure if it's the changes from the pandemic or just overall lowering of the program to accommodate the rest of the school, but it's meeting his needs too.[/quote]
