[quote=Anonymous]My kid didn't "bomb" the CogAt/NNAt either. She was in the pool (NNAT 130) and had a respectable GBRS (12) but still was declared ineligible. And yes, we are appealing with decent WISC scores (VCI 130, PRI 131). As for motivation and perfectionism, I know where you're coming from. One of the reasons I'm trying so hard to get my daughter in AAP is that I feel strongly she "learns differently" and needs the experiential curriculum to thrive. Let's stop casting stones -- a kid with a 120-125 on the CogAt is still in the 90+ national percentile. And the truth is, getting into AAP pushes the merely bright kids into excellence. It's the Outlier phenomenon. We all know it, and that's why we try so hard to get our kids in.[/quote]
