[quote=Anonymous]0016: except there is no natural selection. It is a process defined by humans. Humans are flawed. There are two places where parents can get active: 1) parental referral, and 2) appeals. There are a variety of reasons why children do not make the pool. Parental referral offsets that. Basically, the purpose of the pool is to avoid overloading the process requiring local committees to evaluate kids that clearly are not gifted. However, there are reasons why some kids do not test well unrelated to intelligence or ability. So, parents can refer. That is defined in the process. As for appeals, when I hear about kids scoring 145 on the WISC for appeal, I know the process is needed.[/quote]
