Thank you, PP, for sharing your experience.  What I gathered from your post is that AAP selection within FCPS is really a random crapshot.  Nothing is a shoe in.  [/quote]

I agree with you if the kid is borderline AAP. If the kid really stands out, then that's a slam dunk. About 10-15% FCPS kids admitted into AAP. If the kid is top 5-8%, it will be very surprised that he/she won't get in. All the talks about crapshot are around the 10-15 percentile.[/quote]

Is NNAT of 123 (92%) consider borderline AAP or don't even bother with AAP?[/quote]

You really can't tell anything based on one score, one day. My child scored less than that on the NNAT and I had no doubt he would be admitted, and he was (with no "test prep", didn't fill out the parent questionnaire or submit anything, etc.). You know as the parent if your child will be a for-sure admission to AAP. If your kid is in the grey zone, than that child will do fine in general ed anyway. [/quote]
