[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The ranking is separate from the test scores. The elementary school principals provide a list ranked based on[b] their personal recommendations [/b]of who should be accepted. [/quote] Based on what? My kid hardly knew the Principal but is in HGC now. I guess the P could look at the kid's "transcript", ie, any behavior issues, accolades, etc... but I wouldn't think the P has direct personal experience with every HGC bound kid.[/quote] At our school, the principal meets with the third grade team. So probably the third grade teachers discuss each applicant with the principal. That said, I have never heard before that the school ranks them. I do not believe that this happens with MS applications. [/quote]
