[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Going through the FCPS aap seleftion is a good prep before the college application in this country. We don't know why kids don't get in, still quite don't know why they get in. With the similar test score & qualifications, some make it and some don't. There are thousands of factors behind it. My son put it so correctly, "Mom, actually not all the kids in AAP are smart. I think there is another way that they can get in." Great observation![/quote] I agree that AAP is not really a program for the gifted and I have two in it. I try to discourage the sentiment I see with some AAP kids that they are smarter than everyone else including gen ed kids, etc. Bc that’s not precocious, it’s obnoxious. But yes, non geniuses can succeed. It’s a lesson that extends well beyond college; lots of people making $$$ and climbing up the corporate ladder who aren’t smart in the standardized tests definition way but are savvy. [/quote]
