[quote=Anonymous]I think what everyone is ignoring here is that AAP is NOT that hard. You don't need to be brilliant, and you don't need to have a 99 percentile IQ. You just have to be a pretty smart kid, a good listener, and have a good attitude. FCPS tries to use high COGAT and WISC scores to indicate whether a child should be in AAP, but really many more could easily handle the work. So by "prepping" your child for the COGAT and WISC, a parent is just trying to do whatever they can to help their child get into a program in which they would do FINE. Don't worry, if a child has a *gasp* 95 percentile COGAT score, they will not drag down the other brilliant children who apparently may be destined to be brain surgeons. [/quote]
