[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]

DP, but what possessed you to be so nasty?  Sorry, you don't get to decide who posts.  Besides, the post you are responding to was that of an experienced parent who was trying to help; GBRS and HOPE are analogous in that both represent the teacher's assessment/opinion of the child, which is heavily weighted in the AAP process.  Still. [/quote]

Both GBRS and HOPE are out of parents’ control. This is how your child’s teacher feels about your kid. The teacher accessment seems most important.[/quote]

Not just seems. Was demonstrated in the external review of AAP in 2020 to [b]actually be[/b] the determining variable when they controlled for as many other things as they could.[/quote]
