[quote=Anonymous] [/quote] +1 And they've also pointed out that AAP isn't a real gifted program - so it's not even servicing the kids who most need it. Instead, it's just taking half of the mainstream student population, and slapping a gifted label on them. It's utterly obnoxious.[/quote] It does not take half of the mainstream population. It takes approximately 14% of the mainstream population.[/quote] That's still too much. They should accept far fewer kids. 2-5% would be more like it.[/quote] But don't you see how "utterly obnoxious" the arguments against AAP are when they often use inaccurate statements (like OP noting that time and time again gifted athletes became leaders or that schools have populations with 1/2 in AAP (rather than noting that is very, very unusual) and now you saying "half the mainstream" and after being called on the inaccurate statement just gloss over it)?
