[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here, that isn't my point. We did prep. I find it annoying that we had to because MCPS seems to be planning to give the kids a test that depends on higher level knowledge they they have no opportunity for the kids to learn in school. Will report back after Saturday and if this is really the case or not. [/quote] Why are you annoyed that the test is hard? Fifth grade isn't designed to prep kids for the test. The process is to target those who need accelerated learning. Possibly it will include kids who were sent to boot camp to score well on the test, but that's doing a disservice to the kids who will now be in thag accelerated environment for 3 years. My daughter got into a middle school magnet -- the test was very very hard, and she was exhausted. The curriculum is very hard, too. [/quote]
