[quote=Anonymous]Seems like a lot iof HGC rejections in comparison to previous years to me. I've had 2 who have gone through HGC previously as well. Way more than half got into MSMs in both years. Probably like 75%. The number of people saying that their HGC kids who did well on test and does well in school got rejected seems unusual. I don't get how this adheres to the issues raised by the study. it said that the admission process was too test dependent. So why have a system where there are no essays or teacher recs? The report discusses additional skills that don't display in test. So, why leave out activities and awards/achievements? I also think it's great to ID more potential candidates, but then open up another MSM and add more spaces! MSM was already super tight & harder to get into than HGC or HS app programs. Just glad my kids are through and out! Sorry for all of you dealing w/ rejection.[/quote]
