[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Weird question here. I have a kid applying to Benilde with really mediocre to crappy grades (independent school) and a 98% HSPT. Is his score going to cause him issue getting into the program? His learning difference are well documented and have definitely affected his grades.[/quote]

No- DD had a 95 HSPT and was admitted into Benilde.[/quote]

Ditto.  I had the very unmotherly reaction of cringing when I saw how high my DC's HSPT was, but DC got into Benilde anyway.  They do read the documentation of learning differences...[/quote]

It's weird that people think scoring high on the HSPT would prevent your child from getting into Benilde? They won't accept kids who score to low. It offers extra executive function support not a LD program or remediation. [/quote]

SJC describes it as an LD program: Our Benilde Program, named for visionary and innovative Lasallian educator St. Benilde Pierre Romancon, offers a college preparatory program for highly motivated students with diagnosed mild learning differences.[/quote]

I know of one person last year who applied for Benilde and was accepted to SJC, but not the Benilde program. I guess they thought he would do fine in the regular program with some accommodations. So yes, it's possible good grades and a high test scores might make you ineligible for the program. But that being said, I don't know what SJC's Benilde criteria are.
