[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] The decision process is quite cryptic and how the applicants are selected is a secret. The actual weight given to the parent referral and submission is unknown. Weight given to minority status is undefined. Perhaps simple to fill out, but not simple to know what is the best way to package it and what additional testing/materials to include to gain admission.[/quote] IMO, If the kids are obviously ready for AAP (98% NNAT AND 95% CoGAT, 14 or better GBRS, nice work sample the teacher can easily identify), or obviously not ready (either NNAT nor CoGAT made the cut, 10 or less GBRS, not much good work sample to choose from), the parent's input will weight minimal on the final decision. As for as the kids that close to the threshold, if the parents can provide additional material outside the score/GBRS/sample, it might help. [/quote]
