[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]if your child needs a prep course then they don't belong in AAP. Sorry. The simple instruction of 'answer all the questions - don't leave any blank' is enough for any smart child. If you need a 4 week summer course, get ready for tutors in ES and sad faces when the kids look around at age 10 & 11 and realize other kids actually get the ideas faster and easier than they do. [/quote] Disagree that just missing the "in pool" benchmark score is a predictor for failure in an AAP Center. Seen plenty of kids get in on appeal and do great. On the other hand, getting the in pool scores save the hassle of appeals, WISC, etc if you feel your child needs the curriculum, but just didn't test well. The scores are just a snapshot...so many variables can affect the score. And prepping arguably eliminates some of those variables. [/quote]
