[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] This is false. ANYONE could take the test, and it wasn't heavily reliant on teacher/parent rec. [/quote] Only kids whose parents asked for their children to be tested were considered for the program in previous years but now schools identify candidates. Something like five times as many kids were tested than in prior years. This seems far more inclusive and does a better job finding the best candidates. [/quote] right.. so *anyone*. The student could be getting bad grades, and if the parent wanted their kid to take the test, then that student could. Again, I have no problem with widening the net. But the admit criteria should be transparent, ie, they should publish the test scores like they used to do. Why did they stop doing that?[/quote]
