[quote=Anonymous]I'm laughing at all the anti-prep talk and children not being a good fit because they're not qualified. AAP isn't hard. It's mildly more advanced than the general classroom. 50%+ of students could easily be comfortable with this level of education. While it's advertised as FCPS's state mandated G&T program, it doesn't serve the needs of those students, as it's truly a program designed to accommodate rich parents who want to brag their children are advanced. If prepping gets your 20% FCPS percentile child into the 15% of those accepted, you're in good company with most of the kids in the program already. You've gamed the (designed to be game-able) system and it's worked. You can continue to feel good about yourselves, while your child will do just fine. This from a parent of a borderline kid who prepped and has no regrets. Blame the system and not the parents. If it was for the top 1-2%, no one would be having this discussion.[/quote]
