[quote=Anonymous]I think it is too subjecting. I have 3 kids in aap and luckily the first one got in before the GBRS (got a low score) counted as much but scores were very high. That child is extremely gifted but not a people pleaser, and as the child has gotten older and has learned how to interact better, the skill level is so much more evident to another person. I feel like this child would have been wrongly passed over with the new system. 2nd kid in pool and good scores, but super smart rather than gifted in my opinion. Got an almost perfect GBRS score and got in. 3rd kid possibly is the most gifted of all and scores were through the roof AND the child is thankfully verbally advanced and very outgoing, so I was never worried about the GBRS. But if child 1 didn’t get in, I would have needed to pull that child from FCPS. You can’t have someone in the 99th percentile just chug along, they won’t learn any study habits.[/quote]
