[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]PP: here is the problem on prepping for the test: of course prepping will improve the scores. The problem is the metric they are measuring assumes no prep. They are not trying to measure how well DC can prep.[/quote] So what you are saying, I think, is that those who prep have a distinct advantage over those who do not as the metric assumes no prep. All the more reason to prep. I couldn't care less about the metric or the purity of the test resulsts, I am trying to maximize my DC's chances to get into a very worthwhile program.[/quote] If your DC's teachers give a mediocre GBRS, all the prepping in the world won't get your child in--you do realize that, right? Do you also realize that if your DC does get in, he or she is expected to keep pace with the AAP program? Ah, forget it...you're obviously fixated on buying your way into AAP, whether or not it's the right fit for your child. Shame on you for helping make the system a bigger sham than it is already.[/quote]
