[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have a very mixed feeling about the AAP now. My child is in pool based on NNAT as well as FAT, but the report card is horrible horrible... nothing spectacular.  Will the general classroom be better for him?
Maybe a WISC to find out his true IQ?[/quote]

As a parent reading these threads (no special expertise), I have taken away that you don't really need a great report card for AAP admission. I think some parents have found that their children flourished once in AAP and they were just not engaged in the regular classroom. Or maybe schoolwork isn't his/her thing right now but it would be the same in either setting. If report card is horrible now then no reason to think that the regular classroom is a great place for your DC anyway. If he/she gets into AAP why not give it a try? You can always switch back if needed. Most on these threads seem to be saying wait for WISC if you truly need it for appeal, but it's always an option either way if you simply want more info, including maybe some advice from a professional on what could be holding your DC back from making his/her best academic efforts. I would think you have a very bright kid if DC is in pool from both NNAT and FAT! Barring any extensive prepping for the tests of course. Do you know the GBRS?[/quote]
