[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]NP. I asked the AART a couple of years ago about criteria for advanced math and received the following response. Kid got in on appeal so it didn't end up mattering, but it's clearly been used as a screener for years. It's also a data point listed for AAP admissions.

"Good afternoon. We look at multiple data points when thinking about advanced math placement. We use the Cogat, teacher feedback, and IReady scores as well as the assessment."[/quote]

Similar to comments we received at the middle of 5th grade. We were told that there would be opportunity for six graders to take A1H in middle school, and our kid was identified as a potential candidate. In order to eventually recommended by the elementary school to the district, kids need to get (almost) perfect score in SOL, 99% Iready for 9th grade level, and teachers evaluation. Then the procedure was to take two rounds of tests monitored by the district in the summer between 5 to 6. I do know that there are some kids who didn't pass the first round. But this was a while ago. [/quote]
