[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]NNAT 128
COGAT 126
GBRS 8

DC was not found eligible in the first round, appealed with WISC 128 (97%) and recommendation letters and got denied again.

Details of WISC - Full Scale 128 - 97% 
Verbal Comprehension 88%
Visual Spatial              97%
Fluid Reasoning           94%
Working Memory         68%
Processing Speed        63% [/quote]

I wonder if, when the committee sees high scores as above, coupled with moderate/low processing speed -- if they suspect prepping.

Not suggesting that you did or didn't prep -- just wondering if that is what the committee is thinking.[/quote]

Same PP, but I wanted to add:  
The GBRS tanked this kid.  The same scores with a good GBRS would have been IN.  While all of the scores are strong, none of them are standout scores, and apparently none of them are enough to overcome that GBRS of 8.  [/quote]

Sadly, I agree. My DD had lower scores than this child's on NNAT and CogAT and an 8 GBRS. She got in first round with a FSIQ of 141. Without that she wouldn't be in. She's in 5th now. She's done well-ish but does struggle with writing. [/quote]

^^ To be clear: "She's in 5th now" means she has been in AAP for 3 years (not applied this year as a 5th grader)[/quote]
