[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The question is where is the "high WISC"! I agree, a high WISC should end the discussion. But over what threshold? 130, 135, 140? Where's the line? [/quote] AAP comprises around 20% of the grade. A 130 WISC is the top 2%, so by rights, that should be the line. Since FCPS wants more than just one test score, I'd say that any two of a 98th+ percentile test score, teacher support, or being above grade level in both math and language arts should suffice for automatic admissions to AAP. If FCPS practiced any due diligence, then any kid with a 140+ WISC that does not have the teacher's endorsement for AAP and isn't working above grade level should be flagged for some sort of intervention or LD screening.
