[quote=Anonymous]I'll add a fun GBRS anecdote. My kid who had 140+ on the WISC and CogAT, was 3 grade levels above on iready math and 2 on iready reading, was reading Percy Jackson novels in 2nd grade and was already taking AAP math with a higher grade level got low scores for motivation and creativity. One of the comments in the motivation section was that my kid was a strong writer when he was willing to write, but had a weak pencil grip and was often reluctant to write as much as he could. Basically, the teacher thought my kid wasn't motivated enough for AAP since he wouldn't push through the physical pain of writing. I'm sure the AAP selection panel had a good chuckle/eyeroll over that one. [/quote]
