[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]PP - Yes - he scored above the median by a lot, but the cut off is even higher than that (at least it was when he took it 2 years ago). And even if you make the test cut off they do also factor in certain demographics ([b]I was told at least gender to try to make the classrooms more or less equal if possible [/b]- though doesnt always turn out that way) Also - he had great recommendations but not sure how much those really matter. But now, 2 years later, everything turned out for the best in the end! [/quote] No. At our HGC, the Principal stated that there is no gender bias. Some years, HGC is mostly girls, some mostly boys, and some evenly distributed. This year, it happens to be mostly boys, but last year, it was mostly girls.[/quote] +1 My son's Center class had 17 girls and 8 boys. We were told that selection does not take gender into account.[/quote]
