[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]First of all only the top 2 W schools are the well regarded MCPS schools. MCPS overall was not uniformly good. Second SAT and ACT scores [b]are a combo of the students studying and parents paying for tutoring. [/b]So scores good or bad have little to do with the schools. [/quote] People love to roll out this generalization, but it is not true (perhaps in your household it is). [b]My student was never tutored, for pay or free. He looked at the SAT paper booklet and did a free online review the evening prior to the exam. Scored in the 1400's on his first try. Not excellent by DCUM standards, but pretty good for doing none of the above, as you imply.[/b] [/quote] My college friends who went to law school did this with the LSAT. They did no prep and scored in the high 90s percentile. One of them even went out for happy hour the night prior. [/quote]
