[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There is no GPA for second graders, no advance math, no competition trophies or other accomplishments for second graders. [/quote] There are test scores, reading levels, math levels, and grades for 2nd graders. Those should count for much more than teachers' potentially biased opinions. AAP is at best a program offering mild acceleration, so whether the kid is advanced or not in math and verbal skills should be the most important factor. Also, advanced math, competition trophies, and other accomplishments aren't being considered in the 9th grade TJ application process. All of these are once again considered for froshmore applications, in addition to teacher recommendations. It's kind of peculiar that the one and only process where math level, achievements, teacher recommendations, and test scores aren't being considered is TJ 9th grade admissions. [/quote]
