  1. The ditz wasn’t smart enough to be a Bartender, and now that Harvey’s looking at some time, she’s looking for another media mogul who needs servicing because her fellow commiecrats are going to eliminate her house seat to get rid of her.

  2. 99th percentile? Didn’t even know what a garbage disposal was. I’ve heard her talk in congress. 99% retarded I’d agree with. (No offense to those with mental disabilities. I’ve spent time with them and they are capable of learning)

  3. AOC likely stole this anecdote. About a year ago, I read an article by a black woman who said she went to a mostly white school in NYC, and her teachers thought she was slow until she took a “high-stakes” test and scored in the top percentile. The skeptical commenters on her story pointed out the same difference between high-stakes/ranking and low-stakes/percentile.

    AOC should have done a little checking before she ripped off somebody else’s fake sad story of discrimination. But that would require some intelligence.

  4. 1. Anyone deemed to be learning disabled is EXEMPT from standardized tests, and those districts that allow them to take the test, their scores are not counted, so the school average does not fall.

    2. The natioal Iowa Basic Skills Test does give a national percentile ranking, BUT 99% is talented and gifted. I’d love to see her actual results,, which are as guarded the same as Obama’s birth certificate.

    3. The woman is a lying gaffe machine dating a white man ( same as Don Lemon) so she gets no benefit of the doubt.

    Just ignore her racial aggitating, she went to a white upper class school, now she is “down” because she was a discriminated minority and a genius to boot.

  5. It is not uncommon for students from households that speak a language other than English in the home to have academic challenges in their early years. My guess is that she was showing some inability to keep up with the class and was put through a standard screening process.

    If she had scored lower, her parents may have been asked to consider speaking English at home. Given their educational level, that would not have been difficult. She would also have been assigned to a Resource class (usually not a full-time class) to help her keep up, and/or recommended to be held back a grade.

    From her behavior, my guess is that she does have some learning disabilities, but is high functioning. Not unlike many other Democrats (well, I’ll broaden that to “politicians”) in office.
