[quote=Anonymous]Speaking from experience: my kids are in AAP. Neither have taken after school tutoring. Neither were test prepped. Both learn really quickly. Both have always been ahead of everyone their age. It is a given that they will do well. Both of us (parents) have postgraduate degrees. Ivy league education. Good jobs. Here's my observation: parents I know have had their kids in math programs (Kumon, Russian School, Singapore Math, etc.) and they talk about the investment: their expectation is that their kids will be in the APP program. Other parents I know don't think highly of the AAP program. Their kids aren't in the program. Here I am. In a forum I heard about that is constantly bashing the APP program, the kids in the program, the parents, and some of the schools. What I find comical is the anger and disdain from some of these posters. So much energy and colorful language. I guess those parents would have benefited from a good education...[/quote]
