[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]PP here. You do not want to have to prep your child for the test, as it is not an accurate indication of their capabilities. You will be doing them more harm than good; if you are familiar with AAP, you already know this. [/quote] Flat out wrong. The AAP program is an advance academic program, not a gifted program. I prepped my son, who is now in the 4th grade and doing great. His scores were right on the edge, only make the pool with one standardized score, which if we had not prepped, I believe he would not have achieved. He is a hard worker. He is not gifted as it is defined by IQ level. Those that prep understand the importance of study and hard work, and they will do well if admitted. He does and is doing fine. Do not confuse AAP success with GT success. This is not a program of theoretical musings, but rather a fast paced curriculum of math, science, and social studies with very little emphasis on grades.
