Well we know one kid not getting in. If you’re going to try to correct grammar and least be correct.

I always thought it was about throwing dice, ie a single die tossed (cast).

Barron's book and a couple of tutoring sessions.

It is. That PP should be embarrassed. Hope her kid didn't have that word for one of the analogies.

You are correct. “Dye” is wrong.

Isn’t it fortunate that the person you are quoting wasn’t correcting anyone’s comma usage?

“Dye” is still wrong.

Yes, it is wrong.

They were using incorrect punctuation, not to correct grammar, but to correct a misspelling or incorrect word choice.

And they were doing it while insulting another PP and that PP’s child. A double offense.

Actually, it is not clear. It doesn’t state when the schools will get them. It only says you receive them a week after the school does.

My DS took the test at the school he is applying to. They said they get the results later in Dec (he took it Dec 7) but they won't send out the results until after decisions are made in February. I was surprised to see that they apparently own the results even though we paid for the test.

Is this true? If so that’s wild.

I take it that those of us in DC will learn about the scores in late Jan. based on past posters.
