[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. I get the reaction. I could have made my point better, or not tried to make it at all. Maybe if I just hadn't said the part about my kid getting in, but said the rest. Different reaction, I would think.[/quote] no The fact is that the only people who really care about your kid are you and your family. Furthermore, HGC entrance doesn't guarantee a spot in a MS or HS magnet. And HGC entry is MUCH LESS competitive than entrance into the secondary magnets. Yes, there are brilliant kids, but not all HGC kids are brilliant. Many are VERY smart, and learning is easy for them. But there's a difference between being brilliant and being smart. I'm almost 100% certain that you've not been around truly brilliant kids - who move from HGC to MS and then HS magnets. If you had been, you wouldn't be posting. [/quote]
