[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What iready scores would you consider to be in the “low” range for AAP?[/quote]
If the scores are 90th percentile and above in both math and reading, the HOPE is high, and the work samples are strong, I think your kid has a chance.  [/quote]
But it’s totally fine, if not.

Look:  not every child is cut out for AAP.

Meet your child where they are, and accept them for who they really are. Getting into AAP or not isnt the end of the world.

Please do not project your own tendencies onto your child.[/quote]
Sure, but [b]OP's kid did have a 97th percentile CogAT score and a 98th percentile NNAT.  If OP didn't prep their kid for the tests, these scores look like a kid who should be academically advanced[/b].  If OP's kid is advanced in math and reading, but isn't taking the iready seriously, OP needs to address that.  If the kid isn't advanced in math and reading but has relatively high test scores, it could be a red flag for a LD.  [/quote]

Those are not high scores for AAP, they aren't even in-pool at many schools now. Further, If the iready and HOPE eval isn't supporting the borderline scores, they don't appear on paper to be a kid who "needs" advanced curriculum. [/quote]
