[quote=Anonymous]16:38 I think it looks great for you actually.  Your kid is 93% in the county.   I have no idea if this is true or not but there are at least some people who claim that CogAt is given more weight anyway since it covers a broader range of subjects and is taken over three days.  According to these threads 16-17 percent of 2nd grade goes into AAP.  There has been some talk that they may be trying to shrink the program but they still need to have enough kids at each center to justify keeping them open so even if they shrink the  program to the top 10-13%, your child's CogAt score is well within that range such that if you got a good GBRS I don't see why your child wouldn't get in.  From what I understand in years past 10-15% of second graders were getting into the pool using the top 2% national cutoff.  It seems to me that it would be better to have a 93% and be just outside this years much smaller pool than to be at the bottom of last year's much larger pool.  Just some thoughts. [/quote]
