[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Both my kids made it at 99th percentile. They had friends who seemed equally smart in class that didn’t score as high. I believe they would do equally well in AAP. I don’t even know why I’m arguing this. My kids are smart and should be in AAP. They have smart parents. :D[/quote] AAP is so watered down that any reasonably bright child would do well. The problem is that the reasonably bright kids are so abundant that the pace ends up being too slow for the gifted kids. The debate boils down to whether you think AAP should be an accelerated program that ought to be accessible to any reasonably bright, motivated child, or whether you think AAP should be a much faster program accessed only by the kids whose needs truly can't be met otherwise.
