[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think people are crazy to push so hard to get into AAP. Many of these kids will probably make up the bottom 1/2 of any AAP classroom. Better their child than mine. [/quote] Appeals account for no more than 10% of AAP. That is it. It is not the bottom half, rather, perhaps (on average) 1-3 kids per class. The committee reviews about 4000 kids for AAP in the original cutoff, or about 30% of all 2nd graders (12500 second graders in AAP). Of those 4000, 2000 or so are admitted, or about 15% of the kids. Of the 2000 not admitted, approximately 20% appeal, resulting in 400 applications to review. Half of the appeals are successful, leaving 200. [/quote] No need to tell her/him facts.[/quote]
