That would be find if they really were objective measures...but because of the test prep, you can not trust the scores.[/quote]

So what.

An average kid with average memory and intelligence is not going to prep themselves up to the upper 90s. They just aren't.

So a smart kid manages to gain a point or two, from 95 to 97%?

Not a big deal, and certainluly not worth all this hand wringing and angst.

Likely, if they know how to work that hard they are not the ones holding back the class.

And since as many kids who qualify get in and since there is no cap, they aren't taking a single thing away from a single other student.

My kids don't prep by the way.

One is consistently in the 99.9 range for tests. The other did not qualify but scored very well.

If uou are so fixated on rumor and hearsay about how other kids got placed, then perhaps the reality is that you are insecure because your kid is at the bottom of the class or barely got in. If your kid was comfortably in the middle or at the top of the pack, this drama and nonsense would not even be on your radar.[/quote]
