[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]SSAT is not the be all and end all. Solid recommendations and good interview/shadow visits are as important[/quote] But standardized test scores are partly used to baseline uneven grading scales from many schools. A's at some are B's at others and some are just teacher dependent. A standardized test levels that out by testing them all on the same things. Of course schools take into account that some kids are just not good test takers, but still . . . I'm sure top privates are looking for higher scores but perhaps your child has some artistic skills that will shine through. An art portfolio or something? [/quote]
