[quote=Anonymous]Anecdotally- we learned that one of our friends tried to do the WISC/GMU route and was still rejected last year. She truly believes her kid deserved to be in AAP, but in terms of behavior, she is probably wrong. My experience with this kid is that the kid had a lot of emotional issues and had a hard time obeying rules (aka- the rules don’t apply to me.) There are a lot of people who think their “gifted” kids should be in the class. But a difficult child doesn’t always fit in the AAP class. Also- some kids just don’t have that spark- and it’s clear that they are being pressured into “aap.” Our kids are not in AAP and are thriving on all levels. She is very angry about this and now thinks our school is horrible. But we love our school. So it’s a weird experience now. [/quote]
