Yes, I am the PP and we are at the 22043 center. But still seems crazy that additional scores, work samples and rec letters couldn't push her into a slot.

Not in 149 WISC-V - all subsections were high
3 new samples (realistic fiction, science oriented writing and math problem solving)
3 recommendation letters

Original submission CogAt 141, 4FO, NNAT 126 (can't remember the exact number)

No words. Beyond frustrated.

DD got in with no new scores. We submitted the parent questionnaire and some work samples. We didn't submit anything the with the initial application. She was in pool, but not terribly high. 135 quantitative on the cogat, with a 131 composite. If I recall correctly, nnat was 118. GRBRS were 3C, 1F with excellent commentary.


DS did not get in with similar package. Cogat 134 quantitative, Composite 131, NNAT 128, GBRS 2C 2F, no WISC, not in with Letter, questionnaire and work samples. Zip 22066.

Shame as AAP will be even more critical in a virtual learning environment I think.

DC got in with WISC of 135, the COGAT was 136 and NNAT was 129, so guess it was an additional data point that helped.

Same here - did not provide new scores, but detailed letter and several work samples. DS did not get in. With all virtual start, not sure it matters anyway.
