[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The WP article claims  "1,737 second-graders admitted through the appeals process" but I have no idea what percentage that is of the appeals. [/quote]

1,737 second-graders admitted through the appeals process [b]over the last decade[/b], big  difference :)[/quote]

WOW so only 137 kids a year. That seems small to me! Clearly you don't get in just because you appeal. [/quote]

sorry 173.7 kids a year. Typo! [/quote]

During the first round any child who qualifies for AAP would have been admitted. They had NNAT2/Cogat/GBRS/Work Samples/Commentary to determine child eligibility. If these (several chances) were not sufficient to get a child  admitted, chances of  getting admitted in appeal are very low unless WISC is extremely high. It seems this year WISC is not working either (going by reports on this forum)

My child didn't get in first round. He is a 148 IQ. Pretty sure AAP won't even be challenging. [/quote]

Because the committee didn't know he has a 148 IQ and his scores on NNAT and CogAT didn't represent his true abilities. Would be my guess.

And why do you think your child did not get admitted to AAP?[/quote][/quote]
