[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is the OP. This really was not intended as a brag. Ever since wemoved to FCPS we have gotten contradicting information on which kids get into AAP. Even his own teacher said that, scores alone is not important, but they need to find other evidence. So I wan inquiring whether this score means a shoo in or if I need to submit more documents.[/quote]

To answer bluntly, there's no "shoo in" ... even with a 140, your child's package has to show substantiation of that score.  The teacher's reference letter, the GBRS and the school samples have to show some merit in order to get in.  Hopefully, your AART has been busy collecting samples for your child, and if not, you should definitely ask your AART whether they have enough samples.  The reason you are getting conflicting information is because there are cases where kids with 140+ get rejected because the application doesn't support the score.   While it's rare, it DOES happen.  And, it can happen to your child as well.  There's no guarantee that he is getting in just based on score alone.  [/quote]
