[quote=Anonymous][quote]It is not a certainty that your kids are in AAP because of test prep for a second grade ability test. Maybe they're bright kids.

By "works," do you mean that the product enables students to get higher scores than they would have without the product? Maybe they'll get higher scores if they are practicing types of questions that they are not supposed to see until the day of the test. But then the test will not be measuring what it is meant to measure, will it? The school is looking for a measurement of how well children respond to types of challenges they have not seen before. [b]It is interesting that FCPS has made changes to the second grade test this year. [/b]The tests are only one part of the selection process. Lots of kids are in AAP without having to engage in activities they've been asked not to do.[/quote]

This will not make one iota of difference.  The same kids will beat out the entitled kids every time.  It's happening in every zip code in America.  The efforts of the establishment reverse this trend to close this expanding gap will not work.
