[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As a retired FCPS AART, I enjoy reading these threads which have no basis in reality. Parents advising others with no real knowledge of the process.  Do not make any assumptions on AAP admission based on anything you read on this site.  Do what you think is best for your child but make no assumptions based upon what you read here.[/quote]

I am  a parent outside the process (not in Fairfax) but who finds it fascinating since I grew up in county when the program was GT and had many fewer kids, I have read the AAP threads for years.

Actually, a lot of the same advice is repeated in threads year after year and seems to bear out and be true.  Sure, there are always some outlier advice or some crazy stories of admission but I think any competitive process has those.

There are always parents who point out their AART was not very helpful or rude - perhaps you were one of those?  If you were so bitter or didn't like dealing with parents for this process, why did you take the job as AART to begin with?  Seems fooloish to be in a position if you look down on the parents and kids and have no interest in helping.[/quote]
