That was my DC.  Again, work samples can trup everything.  AART had some amazing work samples for my DC and I assume that the panel saw them and realized test scores were not an accurate reflection of the ability/intelligence level.  Thank goodness the AART at our school cared!

New Poster here - DC was in pool based on NNAT (99%), but would not have made the pool based on CogAT VQN. Grades are all 4s in core areas. DC is reading above grade level and receiving some differentiated lessons. I requested the screening file. GBRS was 13 with really good narrative. Teacher-submitted work samples included notations as to what behaviors each one showed. We did not submit any work samples from home. We did include letters of recommendation from people who know DC and also have prior experience with GT or AAP, both as teachers (not FCPS) and as parents. IMO, DC's test scores were marginal, but the overall file was strong. DC was accepted for Level IV for next year. I believe the committee took the whole file into account.[/quote]

What was the CogAT VQN score?[/quote]

I don't remember the individual components, but the VQN was 75%[/quote]
