Doing a parent referral is basically applying.  You are asking the committee to consider your child for admission to AAP.  Ridiculous hair splitting, but whatever.  Op, AAP admission is based on test scores on the Naglieri test and the CogAT.  The Naglieri is given in first grade and the CogAT in second grade.  If your child gets a high enough score on either test, usually 98th percentile, he or she will automatically be considered for AAP in third grade.  If your child doesn't meet the benchmark, you can do a parent referral (which looks very much like an application) for your child to be considered for AAP.  You fill out a questionnaire and can submit materials that support that your child should be in AAP.  The component of AAP that people refer their kids for is basically a full time advanced academics program.  If your kids come in after second grade, they can still enter AAP as it starts in third grade and goes through eighth.  I case you haven't figured it out yet, some people on this board can be very sarcastic and unhelpful.  Good luck with your decision.[/quote]
