It’s worth appealing. I don’t know how successful appeals are but your kid might have a good chance. The work samples may be the reason the other student got in and yours didn’t. MAP percentiles are pretty broad too so 98 may not be as competitive at your school. The other kid might be exceptional in math and have a higher NGAT quant score. My AAP kid got 99 percentile on MAP and math is far away my kid’s strength. My kid is above average but not exceptional in language arts. Math may be weighted more since it’s significantly faster paced in AAP. But I’m guessing. I’m also surprised the other kid’s parents shared their stats in such great detail. I have no idea what scores my kids’ best friends got.[/quote]

Right, I have 2 other data points ,there's  one got math 96% also in too . Before the result came out , they thought my DC was the most strong candidate in their small group , and when the result came out , DC was the only one who doesn't get in . It surprised them as well . [/quote]

Did you all compare work samples too? [/quote]

Your kid's finger painting left me wanting. [/quote]

Are you, pp? Is that a no? Obviously teacher input matters, but work samples do too. If you haven't seen the other work samples for comparison, it's possible that your child’s work samples could be stronger.

I think additional work samples can be submitted on appeal, which might be the best strategy for a kid like yours, given that you already have good scores and can't change the teacher recommendations at this point.[/quote]

I said your kid’s finger painting. My kid’s finger painting is on point. Perhaps your child gets their lack of reading comprehension from you.[/quote]

Pp was just trying to be helpful.

Instead of accusing others’ comprehensive ability, you should work on your deliveries.[/quote]
