[quote=Anonymous]As the parent of a high-achieving, National Merit Finalist, #1 in the class kind of kid, the very best advice I can give you is to step away from this forum and not come back until spring of sophomore year. Spend the time between now and then nurturing your child's love of learning, helping him/her find one or two areas of particular interest and - above all else - get him/her to read, read, read. Doing those things will hopefully lead to good grades, and prepare DC for the standardized test regimen. We are a pretty laid-back family, and I've been a little surprised at how stressful and protracted this process has become. The later you can wait to start, the less time you'll have to spend in its throes. [/quote]
