[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]But very few kids aren't successful in AAP, because AAP isn't that difficult. [/quote] My oldest child got in AAP in the first round. He struggles in AAP because he has ADHD. Guess what, he would struggle in Gen Ed, per the neuropsych report because his struggle has to do with executive function and not intelligence. He scored a 140 on the NNAT and a 139 on the CogAT. Putting him in Gen Ed would actually make things worse for him as the worst thing you can do to an ADHD child is have them be bored. I agree AAP is not difficult. My youngest (not middle) child is also in AAP and it's ridiculous easy and boring for her. She doesn't have ADHD. So the extent kids find AAP challenging, it may have nothing to do with the level of difficulty of AAP or that the child isn't smart enough to be there. Many kids are 2E and will struggle.
