[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m sorry, OP. Not sure if your child did much test prep but I think it would be a hard test for any students that went in cold, being unfamiliar with the format and not knowing what to expect. We did our own self-guided review at home with a workbook and didn’t prep as much for the math section, which really showed in the score (it was substantially lower than all the other sections) I think how much test scores count really depends on the school. The more competitive ADW schools seem to weigh the HSPT more heavily. Arlington Diocese schools seem more forgiving/flexible. We’ve been repeatedly told it’s mostly for placement in math and English levels (honors, etc). And it can be used for scholarships. Hang in there and know your child is more than the results of this one test![/quote] Absolutely. Tell your kid to keep their chin up. They will be fine. [/quote]
