[quote=Anonymous][quote]But this is supposed to be testing for a gifted program - which doesn't exist as a gifted program any longer.  If this was truly a gifted program, which I wish it was, then the testing should be IQ testing and not an achievement test that you prep for.  Since this AAP is not a gifted program, in the true sense, then this is what you get!  Bickering over test prepping.

I didn't prep my DC and their score maxed out both tests.  My DC needs a real gifted program and this is what I'm left with - a program that meets her needs a little better than her base school but not exactly what she should really be getting.  The curriculum is still moving too slow for her.  So, you can argue all day long about whether or not it's fair to test prep, but they need to issue actual IQ tests, have a strict cut off and call it a day. [/quote]

Genius kid who aced tests? Check!  No prep? Check!  AAP is not a [i]real[/i] gifted program? Check, check, check, check!

Great job PP, hit the showers.[/quote]
