[quote=Anonymous]Absolutely true. Welcome to getting your diagnosis from Dr. Internet. In my case, the diagnosis is pretty benign: It's hard to know if an out of pool GBRS 16 is an automatic entry to AAP without knowing your school.  I'm not pretending to be a 2nd grade teacher or a member of the screening committee.   Nearly everyone on this thread and similar threads is giving opinions based on their kids and the scores of other kids they've heard about. The people who say of course DC is in with a 16? That is almost certainly based on their limited experience too. And they do not know if their are kids without 16s who were denied entry, because they have not seen every score either.

In my case, at least, I probably end up hearing 6-8 sets of stats a year. And many, many more the two years my kids went through. And also  second hand accounts of test scores & GBRS scores (X's mom told me that hIs scores just missed the pool and his GBRS is 15). I don't really agree with sharing your child's test scores. But a lot of parents do. And I'm sure that it doesn't help that the AAP Center is our base school. I think parents must be nuttier in the younger grades than they would be if we were not a Center.
