Next week? You’ve got to be kidding me. Is there any other test that takes 2 months to send results?

That is just 3 weeks before decision day.

How does knowing the scores affect decision day?

Manage expectations. If you know your kid bombed completely---it might cause you to start thinking about options. Also- many scholarships are based on HSPT scores, as well as some honors programs.

But--we received them today.

If I knew my kid was going to score in the top 1% I might have applied to some additional schools.

There’s no way to do that other than practice tests because of the timing of the test dates and due dates.

How many kids in the DMV typically score in the 98-99% on the HSPT? I know this puts them in the top 1-2% in the U.S., but how does that translate here.

What percentage of kids in this area that took the HSPT scored that high? Is there anywhere to find this data? Thanks

Well just go to the honors brunch at SJC and you will be in a room (more like auditorium) filled with kids who scored the same.

Well, that would be useless since we did not apply to SJC .

Or is this a myth? I also heard the same thing about the number of kids that get straight As every quarter in MS. When I asked the Principal, the numbers were actually quite low. But, talk to any parent and their kid was a straight A student.

I was once told that the DMV and NYC are the most competitive in terms of high school placement test.
