[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]clearly a child with a high IQ is bright. a child with a high GBRS may not be bright, just liked by the teacher. i guess which would you rather have in the class? I think though, most teachers try to be "objective" in coming up with the subjective GBRS number. I think the parameters might be a little faulty though. my child is clearly bright, high IQ, but very shy. hence a lower gbrs.[/quote] I have heard that the AAP selection committee is biased against very shy children. I wonder if there are many activities (presentations and such) that could make AAP an uncomfortable experience for a very shy child? Those with kids already in AAP, is it a difficult environment for a shy child?[/quote] misses the point. In elementary school AAP, pretty much everyone thrives. Like I've heard about Harvard. Once you get in it isn't that hard. It's the getting in that's hard.[/quote]
