[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Most parents see AAP as nothing more than the good old gen ed program, and the current gen ed is the new name for the old remedial instruction. For most advanced students in AAP, the curriculum is watered down to accommodate students admitted on a non-academic, holistic basis. Many individuals who hold grudges against AAP student families assume the AAP curriculum must be challenging, but it’s not. It's quite laughable when one claims outside help is relied on to breeze through the watered down AAP [/quote] It’s not my *opinion* that outside help is often needed: my kid’s AAP friends have had tutors at the first sign of trouble. This continues into HS and then breeds cheating. Of course AAP isn’t challenging for other kids. Their parents have been paying for enrichment at Mathnasium / Russian School of Math for years!
