My schools great, isn't it?

Hey, when I figure out this is unbanned, Pirple Haze is un-cautioned?

OMG i'm part of NAGTY! I was nominated after getting level 7+ in English, in year 8.

[brodeo]

Right. I am so peeded off with my school.

My school has this scheme (along witha bazillion other schools). For the National Association Of Giften talented youth.

I wasn't picked even though I am SURE that I am in the top 5% in the school (top set in every subject, very good CAT test results, 8 in Maths, 7 In Science (high)6 In English in year 9 sats results. Good Classwork etc).

Other people who arn't in the higher sets, didn't get as good SATs results, don't perform well in other classes got in!?

I looked in the critera on the website and am in it, so why the hell didn't I get picked? :eusa_wall

It's all based on cats, you obviously didn't do well enough. I remember being told you could only get like 10 questions wrong or something. Meh, i got in.

lol dont worry trust me
i remember being in it in year 10 and all you do is attend stupid meetings and its all boring

i think i even got extra homework!!! when i had more important things to do like coursework

I'm a member of it (although i've moved to Australia now) However, you have to be in the top 5% and be nominated by your school.

Sorry buddy.

I'm in NAGTY but it is complete junk.
Because we had a meeting and joined.
Then after loads of emails from school and about 4 months they finally sent use our details.

And nothing since.
OH ITZ REALLY HELPING MY EDUCATIONZ

I personally thought the CAT tests were a joke, they didn't tell us anything about them, sat us in a hall and make us do some strange questions. Then they somehow predict your scores and put us in the right groups. Big Joke.

In in Australia so we dont have CAT's but we get tests from universities for math and science. The whole point is to test you with questions off the sylibas [sp.]

My friends are "gifted" one of them got into camps and programs, my other friend gets better marks and does her homework and she didnt get any oppotunity. Luck of the draw sometimes.

[Dan2nd]

Maybe you didin't get in because of equel opertunities (sp?) so they wanted to give other students a chance ?

My school doesnt run the sceame so i never did "cats" etc. the whole sceme sounds like a compleate waste of time anyway, Why would anyone want to do Additonal work, when they dont even get anything for it, Just take an exstra gcse, that way you get a gcse from it at least "/
