We got the admission letter.
We had very good samples of her work from home. That should have helped.. because the DRA isn't very high and the gbrs is pretty low also.
Again, this shows that COGAT is the king.
Not really because NNAT is also high. Your point would be stronger if NNAT was low.
NNAT is below cut off. If you look at the IN scores on this thread, you will see the committee was very straightforward in terms of looking for 132+.
Slightly below but still high. The argument is weak.

28 DRA is what 2nd grader should be at end of the academic year. Seems score is for beginning of the 2nd grade or end of the 1st qtr. So it is almost a year ahead.

We only did CogAT at GMU, and submitted using an in-pool test result, to get in (also coming from private). In your shoes, I would recommend going to GMU for any further testing. It might just be appearances, but it seems that the committee does not trust certain private psychologists to not inflate scores.

Yes. This is what stands out most this year compared to 2016 and 2017.

Unless the sentence was profound, I would be annoyed. Sounds like the teacher didn't bother looking for something since she didn't think your dc needed AAP.

Did not get in. We're surprised.
They don't look at the GBRS from private schools because they are usually inflated.
A 126 WISC is not high enough without other higher test scores, since they ignored the GBRS.
