[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]First kid we didn’t submit any samples at all. Second kid, we submitted 1 writing and 1 math. Writing was just the kid’s description of an animal but details like the animals features, food source, life cycle, and habitat. It was a real animal and the impressive thing for us personally was that it was done purely from memory. Math was a bit more “advanced “ showing kid’s understanding of materials taught in class and applied it to more challenging problems (e.g., learned addition of 2 digit numbers in school but use it for 3 or 4 digit numbers at home)[/quote] Forgot to say they were both in pool with great GBRS from their teachers which I believe is key[/quote] People who know nothing about how AAP works nowadays shouldn't be allowed to post here anymore. GBRS is no longer a thing, grandma.[/quote] NP here. They used GBRS 2 yrs ago when my 4th grader got into AAP. I also have a middle schooler in AAP and ton of friends with high school kids who were in AAP. The process has changed but GBRS to HOPE is only one part of the new holistic process. Those of us elderly folks from GBRS days (a mere 2 years ago) still have valuable info to share, but we're happy to keep it to ourselves. Let us know when you need help with your appeal after you get it wrong. [/quote] :roll: Don't need your help, my child got in on her own merits, no application, worksheets, test prep, etc involved. Sorrynotsorry.[/quote] Good to know your own limitations, any parent advocacy on your part likely wouldn't have been well-received! [/quote]
