[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We got an email from our school (from the Principal): DC is eligible for the full-time Level IV Advanced Academic Program (AAP).  The email might precede the official email from the county.

3 grade
NNAT 138 (1 grade)
COGAT 140 (2 grade)
WISC 99% (from the last year - rejected, appealed - rejected)
GBRS - no idea
Level II (since 1 grade) + Advanced Math 
AAP IV - IN[/quote]

26 pages in and we finally have an acceptance! Congrats![/quote]

It's ridiculous this kid with 138, 140, and WISC 99 percentile got rejected twice. It basically means the GBRS tanked it. GBRS is so subjective it pains me. The opinion of a teacher, an ARRT and whoever else on the committee first rejected this child twice, then the child got another teacher who wrote a better phrased more persuasive GBRS with higher ratings and he or she is in. The child's pure intellect (NNAT 138 is also 99 percentile) stayed the same from first grade onwards, but he only got into Level 4 in fourth grade. They really should put less weight on the subjective GBRS.[/quote]
