[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's not really about the percentiles. Up to 40% of the kids in some schools end up in the AAP program -- but the ones who score in are a minuscule 2-5%. In my opinion, the more important bit is the teacher's recommendation (packaged in the GBRS score). In some schools, teachers are allowed to be more creative, and children are encouraged to engage at a higher level -- hence the higher GBRS numbers. If your child did not score in the "pool" (and sometimes even if he did!), the only way to still get in the AAP is through a teacher who really appreciates him. So.. it *is* a beauty pageant after all.[/quote] WTF is AAP? [/quote]
