[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I find it funny that all the siblings in many of the families are all gifted--even though they have vastly different intelligence and personalities. That should tell you something right there. This is a school where all of the parents have advanced graduate and professional degrees--yet it's just the same families in the program. Statistically, that isn't even possible.[/quote] It's actually very common and normal. Sibling IQs tend to be within 10 points of each other. [/quote] Newsflash: So are 90% of the children at any of the N. Arlington school's. Not just your family members. 90% of could meet the criteria the school uses for gifted. It's the idea that only certain families (3, 4, 5 siblings) all magically are accepted at 5.[/quote] Then Arlington uses a pretty low standard. The standard should be top 2%. Move.[/quote]
