[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]In pool determination just means the school will refer the child for consideration. It doesn't mean the child will get into AAP. But to make those parents happy, how about we do in-pool for those top 10% in every school AND those top 10% in FCPS? I mean isn't that what some parents are afraid that their top 10% kid might miss out on the brownie point? [/quote] DP. Yes, that is what it should mean. And btw, before they changed to local norms, being in-pool was not a brownie point but students in-pool were much more likely to be admitted (not inexplicably). Those with "old" in-pool scores remain more likely to be admitted - but if they are not in-pool and their parents rely on the system rather than refer, then they will not be admitted. Not sure why you disagree with this. [/quote]
