[quote=Anonymous][quote]Again, I have a cousin who's off the charts brilliant, spends most of his time gaming and barely leaves the house. He's never really been able to keep and hold a job. Years ago, doing a fellowship at Harvard, I interviewed a student who wanted to go into journalism. It was clear that this student was very bright, but she couldn't convey that either speaking or in writing. IQ is one piece.[/quote] These examples seem to be exceptions to the not very controversial notion that a high IQ is a good thing, particularly as a measure of academic potential. IF your child is accepted to Harvard, the natural reaction is not fear that she may be a serial killer in the making. So the point you are making is not altogether clear. If you believe aptitude test scores alone should not determine AAP eligibility, it would seem FCPS already agrees. [/quote]
