[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Let me clarify the 89% math was iready math in early September. I don’t have any other math score but I assume it has gone up. I’m not questioning if he’s gifted or just bright, I thought most aap are bright and not truly gifted….[/quote] Most kids in AAP are scoring in the 99th percentile in one iReady and probably 95th or higher percentile in the second. DS was 99th percentile for both iReadys and Passed Advanced for all of his SOLs, including 600s two out of four years in reading and math and a 600 on the science SOL. He is not a genius, but he is really smart. The 89th percentile in Math is strong but not high enough for AAP at most schools.[/quote] Ha. Ha. Ha. Ha. Ha. My first was a 99th percentile kid, all the time. My second was a low-90th percentile kid. My third was like 88th percentile. All 3 were admitted to AAP. Very tired of the "if your kid is merely bright they don't belong in AAP" tropes. [b]People - it's not that special. It's 20% of the county.[/b] [/quote] This. The top 20% of the country is not all geniuses. Not even close. [/quote]
