[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] What you are describing is a selection bias. Maybe from the non-center schools only the parents of kids who are in pool, or who are really advanced will try, hence higher GBRSs, whereas for center schools more parents, regardless of the academic quality of their kids, will apply for AAP, since they are not moving schools. This does not mean that the standard is different, it can just mean that a larger variety of kids apply from the center school, including those who would not qualify even if at a non-center school. [/quote] I agree. I bet parents are MUCH more motivated to do everything in their power to get their children placed into AAP in center or LLIV schools than they are in base schools. Not only would there be many more applications, but the local committees might also be a bit more skeptical about prepping and anything else smacking of overly involved parents. [/quote]
