[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]SAT covers through Algebra 2, so the summer after your kid takes that is the best first crack. For a kid doing precalc in 11th (which is a very typical - perhaps the most common - progression), that would be the summer between 10th and 11th, so your kid is right on track. [/quote] I totally agree with this. My DS didn't take it until summer before his junior year when he had just completed Calc AB. So he was far removed from most of the math that was on the ACT/SAT. I think initially that was a disadvantage for him. He had to go back and rehash a lot of the algebra and geometry etc he took years earlier which is a majority of the test. However, it all worked out as he eventually got the score he needed and was admitted to Georgia Tech for the fall for engineering. [/quote]
