[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is my fear. DD is in 4th grade HCG right now. After a difficult initial transition, she is really engaged at school and enjoying the peer group. I worry that if she doesn't get into one of the MS magnets, MS will be a disaster for her, both academically and socially. And private is not an option for us financially.[/quote]
Yea, I feel for you.   I was in your exact spot last year.    This whole MS testing process was aggravating.  It gets worse in 5th grade when all the kids and even the teacher start mentioning the application and testing.   Then I found out at the test that a bunch of kids had took expensive prep classes and that made me even more worried.

I tried to prepare my child for disappointment and playing up the advantages of the home MS.  In the end was admitted to magnet but I am so glad that is over with.     My kid did really well on the HGC test and equally well on the MS test.     So if your daughter in this boat maybe don't worry so much.[/quote]
