[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] If the work samples are the most important part of the file, they should let people know and make them mandatory. .[/quote] The samples submitted by the school are important, and it's already mandatory for the school to supply two of them. Some teachers are better than others at selecting good work samples. My theory is that [b]if your child has sloppy handwriting or is a poor speller, this will strongly work against your child for AAP selection[/b], even though neither handwriting nor spelling ability are very correlated with intelligence. [/quote] My observation too. It seems that the slightly above average kids that are really hard working and organized have a clear advantage in getting in. If you are a sloppy genius, it's not guaranteed. [/quote]
