[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The overwhelming majority of kids in the 115-130 IQ range would have a much better experience in AAP than they would have in gen ed. AAP is not especially challenging, generally has a better peer group, and lets kids feel like they're smart. The same kid in gen ed would be ignored by the teacher, bored, deal with a lot of kids with behavior issues, and would feel dumb because they aren't in AAP. Whether it's right or wrong to prep for the CogAT is immaterial. Parents are going to do whatever they can to help their kids have a better social and academic experience. [/quote] This is entirely school dependent. I can tell you with certainty that most kids in the 115 range would not be thriving in AAP among the crazy competitive cohort in TJ feeder pyramids.
