You're delusional if you really think it makes or breaks your child's future to be in AAP. You have to know your child.  For some, it would be devastating to always be at the bottom in AAP.  Also, the AAP kids are constantly told how smart they are in school (I have one and I've seen it).  I think some of them tend to rest a bit on their laurels.  For some kids, being at the top of the class in Gen Ed will be better for them and they can end up on the same place.  Math in MS is determined by test ability, so they can take Algebra in 7th grade if they are ready, just like an AAP student can (and not all AAP students will qualify).  In high school, it's all open AP classes and kids take different paths to get there.

It's really an individual choice based on your particular child.  I happen to think for my DC, who would really have to stretch to get into AAP, it's not worth it.  My particular child would be better served in Gen Ed.[/quote]
