[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]People are overstating the role of test scores in AAP acceptance. The equity report showed that GBRS is much more important and much more indicative of whether a kid gets accepted. A "natural" 95th percentile kid with an unprepped 125 on the CogAT will still likely get in if the GBRS is high and the work samples are good. Likewise, high test scores plus a lower GBRS and poor work samples is a huge red flag for a kid who is heavily prepped but not gifted. That kid will likely get rejected. [/quote] GBRS and work samples are probably the easiest to game by overzealous parents. I’d suspect it’s the other way around, great GBRS and work samples but low cogat, is more of a red flag.[/quote]
