[quote=Anonymous]Test scores and grades are both used in the selection process. Test scores can be used to figure out who is really gifted. Grades can be used to see who is really motivated. Kids who have great grades and high test scores probably have the best odds of getting in. It's not a perfect system because grades are subjective and some teachers are much more lenient with grades than others, and some kids may be highly gifted but perform terribly on tests due to learning disabilities, but what system would be perfect?[/quote]
