There is no cut off. 132 used to the in-pool cutoff for the County. Now each school has it’s own in-pool cutoff, although Center schools might still use the 132.

They don't use 132, or at least ours didnt. 136/136 NNAT/COGAT not in pool last year.

Our center doesn't use 132 either. It's 10% of the school, any school, for 2nd grade. At a high SES/high acheiving ES, especially with a smaller 2nd grade cohort, the cut score might be very high.

It's also an average of NNAT and CogAT.

None of that applies for applications that aren't for fall of 3rd grade, though.

+1 our high SES center school is over 140+ for in-pool. An in-pool score means a packet is automatically created by the school w/o parent referral, it does not mean the child is guaranteed AAP placement.

DP. That's embarrassing. Those kids do not all have an IQ over 140, they are all/nearly all prepped to get those scores. Absurd.

Glad we chose to buy our house in a non-TJ-mania area (from the old map).

Yes, but they will also look at your son's 3rd grade SOL scores. If he scored pass advanced in both math and reading, he has a good shot of being accepted.
