[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Kids like Jeremy Schumer who was doing calculus at age 6 and went to college at 12 (Ivy League)- those are the geniuses. AAP stands for advanced. Big difference.[/quote] There's a lot of space between child prodigies and ordinary above average kids. If we define +1 SD as "bright," +2 SD as "gifted," and +3 SD or higher as "genius," then AAP includes a lot of bright kids, a decent number of gifted kids, and a small handful of geniuses. I would not expect any bright kids to struggle with the FCPS AAP curriculum. [/quote]
