[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My current high school senior daughter was principal placed in aap level 4 in 5th grade. She was in aap level 3 every other year.  That 5th grade year she got all 4s and an aap level 4 recommendation from her teacher, but wasn’t put in aap level 4 when we reapplied for 6th grade. So she went back to gen Ed.

She did all honors in middle school which is the same content as aap, but separated for reasons that don’t make sense to me.

Then 13 AP classes and straight As in high school. She does continue to test poorly, which is why she didn’t test into aap originally, which is reflected in her SAT score not being great.

She was rejected from the ivy ED she applied to, but has been accepted to every other college she has heard back from so far.

So yeah, your kid might be exposed to a non-aap level 4 kid like my daughter. [/quote]

The OP's post reads like she thinks her kid will get the dum-dum cooties from the principal placed kids. Relax, OP, your kid will be ok if they have to mingle with a few principal placed kids who were not officially designated by the great central office committee as being AAP worthy.

People like the OP make me second guess whether AAP would be a good environment for my kid (we have not crossed that bridge yet). [/quote]

Like everything else AAP environments will vary by school, grade cohort, and even teacher. My kids had somewhat different experiences in AAP at the same center based on the kids they were with and the teachers they had.[/quote]
