[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]One PP wrote "Despite what others say, not every child accepted is 99th percentile." More than true. I fact most children are certainly not in 99th percentile as those children are trouble - they need extra accommodations private schools are not equipped at all to provide in lower schools. [/quote]

You absolutely don't know what you're talking about.  All three of my children were at 99+ and while they needed some differentiation and sometimes more challenge, they were absolutely fine at one of th Big 3s.  How dare you label children you know nothing about?  [/quote]

May you tone down a bit, please? I DARE as I have a 99.9 so do know what I am talking about. Good for you your children were absolutely fine. Not all children get enough with differentiation and some little challenge. Some children even loose interest in school - and fail. An high IQ score does not predict anything but a different way of thinking and handling things. It does not mean systematically success especially in a regular classroom setting. Fortunately DC is doing well but it took us parents a lot of energy to advocate - lower school was just an extremely bad experience in an excellent school in NW DC. [/quote]

Tone down?  Look at your original post where you make sweeping generalizations about children who score at 99+ as "trouble" and needing "special accommodations," and a blanket statement that "private schools" are "not at all equipped" to provide accommodations needdd by such children.

You're obviously a troll, as you know nothing about the WPPSI, private schools, or gifted children.
