[quote=Anonymous][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]

[b]Well aware of how it is in NYC, which is why many of us live here, not there.   FFX County is not NYC, but as more people are convinced by hysteria on boards like these that their kids have to do well on these tests or resign themselves to a substandard education, it will become that bad.

Fortunately, long before that happens, most of the sought after schools in FCPS are going to have Local Level IV and phase out centers, so this desperate need parents feel to push their kid to get to a better school will end.  Of course, LLIV, like the AAP centers is really just tracking by another name.   Still amazed a smart attorney hasn't figured out a way to challenge the inequity of the whole AAP program as currently administered[/b].[/quote]

Well, fortunately the real life people here in fcps do not actually reflect the nonsense which is DCUM's caricature of AAP.

Maybe in really small pockets of this area with specific groups of parents but it really is not the norm. [/quote]
