[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We are from NYC where you need to take the test for GT before you start kindergarten. They also have a December cut off for Kindergarten so many kids start kindergarten at age 4. You better bet everyone is prepping for these tests.

My kids are currently only in preschool but we live in FFX County. I will probably buy a few books to expose my kids to the type of questions. If you think I will spend endless hours on this, you are mistaken. I may do a few runs with my then 2nd grader so he understands how to answer a question when the time comes.[/quote]

I just wanted to add that NYC has a high level of competition and it is extremely difficult to gain acceptance to anything whether it is preschool, GT or private school. Space is simply limited.

I'm so glad we live here in VA where I don't have to even think about this test until 2nd grade. My kids are riding bikes, hanging out at the pool and learning to read leisurely while our NY friends are studying to get into elementary school. Plus the Manhattan population is overly skewed with highly intelligent, well educated and wealthy people so the competition is that much worse.

Expect that my kids can place in the top 15-20% or whatever it is that you need to be to get into AAP.[/quote]
