[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You don’t need to be 99% to get into the pool. I’m another parent who found out my child wasn’t even placed in the pool despite meeting every criteria. [/quote] You’ll be humbled when you get your issue clarified and find out they didn’t meet the criteria afterall.[/quote] It’s not rocket science. The criteria is posted on the site. My kid meets the criteria - I have that info. Stop trolling.[/quote] Ah, so you don’t understand it. Ok, this is the deal, the criteria isn’t posted. No one knows what the cut off is this year, or previous years. It’s “locally normed” which means it varies according to how much poverty there is in your schools. In some schools that means kids scoring say 97th percentile do not get in. In other schools, scores above 70th percentile are in the pool. These are example numbers. So yes, it is way more complicated than you think it is and your kid likely didn’t net the criteria.[/quote]
