[quote=Anonymous]I think there can be a whole debate as to whether the SSAT is an accurate reflection of a student's ability. After all, if it was solely based on ability, there would be no "test prep" needed. Most of these schools know (from years of student applications & acceptances) which schools grade easier, what teacher recommendations hold water, etc. During a high school tour we were asked who my child had for English at our current school. They commented that they love getting "Teacher X's" students as they are so well prepared and adjust very well. That seems to me that they have a pretty good handle on what they can expect from not only certain area schools, but the specific teachers as well.[/quote]
