[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How much are iReady scores used to determine AAP acceptance?

NNAT: 135
COGAT: 120
No idea about the GRBS 
Not in for Stratford Landing. Sort of surprised but daughters iReady scores aren’t very good. Tests and work samples are all great. She was in pool. Not parent referral. [/quote]

Those scores are on the low side. Sorry to say.

Lots of kids used to get in without being in pool. I don’t know how it is now.[/quote]

Pp here - yes definitely but this thread highlights scores that are equal or lower and they are in. See previous poster. [/quote]

Those who get in with lower scores are generally applying from Title One schools.  If you aren't coming from a high-poverty school, a CogAT of 120 is likely too low for admittance--even with the much higher NNAT.[/quote]

A CogAT of 120 or even 115 is not &quot;too low for admittance,&quot; providing that it's accompanied by a stellar GBRS and great work samples.  The AAP equity report showed that the GBRS was by far the most significant metric for getting admitted to AAP.  If your child's teacher and school strongly support AAP admissions, your child will get in even with poor test scores.  If they don't support admission, your child likely won't get in even with extremely high test scores.  GBRS is king.  [/quote]

It should be disqualifying for third grade entry. A 115 paired with a great GBRS just means room mom and brown noser. If you kid really needs it, have them apply next year with great SOLs to counterbalance the COGATs [/quote]

&quot;Should be&quot; and &quot;Is&quot; are two different things.  A kid with a CogAT &gt; 140 should be in regardless of the GBRS.  The reality is that they will likely get rejected with a low GBRS.  Likewise, a kid with a 115 CogAT shouldn't get in without some extraordinary circumstances.  But kids like that often get in when the GBRS is stellar.  [/quote]

My kid had a cogat somewhere in the low 130s and perfect GBRS and didn't get in. She did the next year with similar GBRS and perfect SOLs. [/quote]
