[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]... [b]The students who succeed (and not necessarily by getting into TJ, but succeed generally at McLean High or well rated high schools) are the ones who received the extra foundational help in elementary school.[/b]  [/quote]

The highlighted above is simply not true.  My DD who is in AAP at a McLean school has never had math tutoring of any kind. [b]She has always received 4s in math[/b]. [/quote]

You'll need to wait until middle or high school to speak ... that's the statement the prior poster is making--getting a 4 in elementary school doesn't equate to succeeding in a AP math curriculum!  Sorry to say ... [/quote]

This is PP. DD is now at Longfellow. Straight A student. [b]You people[/b] just can’t accept the fact that some kids are just naturally good at math![/quote]

Yes, we the people :) That's fantastic in your case and nobody claimed it is impossible. Your anecdote doesn't imply that this is the experience of most people in the area.[/quote]
