[quote=Anonymous]Your 5th grade child is not expected to know all the math on the 5th to 7th SSAT. Please do not force teach them for this one test. They are graded against other 5th graders who also have not had the material, and these test scores are the LEAST important part of the application process. Please don't torture you children over this. You should explain to them that there will be things they do not know and are not expected to know. Teach them that when thy encounter a question that is so foreign to them that that they cannot even guess or eliminate one or two of the possible answers, that the correct response if to skip it. Tell them that the kids who guess instead of skipping will get lower scores. Savvy kids know when to skip it.[/quote]
