First, a WISC of 130 or above should be good since 130 is 98'%. Second, people were rejected this year with WISCS as high as 135. I think this year is like no other. They aren't raising the standards because they still let in subpar NNATs and CogAts in 120s but they are rejecting gifted children with high WISCs. Good luck.

Based on dcurban mom echo chamber. No one here knows if this year is differ t or not, may be but you’re bbbasing this on very limited data. Let see when the appeals arrive. Good luck all

That is a very good score it MAY not get your child into AAP though.

Sorry, GBRS at 9 is nearly impossible to overcome in my view. I had a kid there: 2E, other scores way high... denied. Other kid had 14 GBRS and average at best test scores ... in first round. Yes, I am jaded, but I had one truly gifted kid and one kid who was a hard worker and easy in class ... guess who got in. GBRS rules the day, at least for base school kids.

None of your daughter's scores are above the 132/12 GBRS threshold. A 150 WISC trumps everything.

The 132 threshold is for CogAT and nnat, not wisc.

It's weird that you know his scores.

Did you submit the WISC with the first round package? That is, did the committee know about your son's 150 WISC? Maybe that made more of an impression than your daughter's scores, which are more consistently clustered, but not "outstanding".

The committee did see my son's 150 on the first round. It also saw my daughter's which should tell them she's in the top 2% and gifted enough to qualify for MENSA but not AAP which has a bunch of kids who aren't even gifted in it.

But there is a big difference between an IQ of 150 and and IQ of 130. I'm sure that played a part. There have been several posters on here with kids in the 132-135 range that didn't get in.

what are the sub scores on the wisc and cogat, I heard that play a role also.

Was child prep for the test?

Thee are 2 good scores and 1 crappy SUBJECTIVE score and you ask if thee was test prep? People are crazy.
