I meant that we don't know what the committee is doing, what their criteria is, what their goals are.

On this forum, there's a lot of energy spent examining who got in and who didn't to determine the rule.  I think that's a foolish endeavor.[/quote]

PP here, and I agree with you.  The process is holistic, and trying to analyze just the scores is foolish.  We have no real way to compare work samples, teacher comments, and everything else that goes into the packet, nor are we privy to the criteria and goals of the program.  Most of the kids who belong in AAP but got rejected this time will either get in on appeals or get in next year.

That being said,[b] I think failing to submit any work samples, the questionnaire, or other optional forms was a huge mistake that led to some of those 99th percentile rejections[/b].  [/quote]

Maybe, but that isn’t fair for kids whose parents are uninvolved or uninformed.[/quote]

And the kids who aren't prepped for the test are also the most likely to have the parents who don't submit extra information, so that doesn't really make a lot of sense to me.  :?: [/quote]
