[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What the hell are we paying all this money for?[/quote] The schools don't tell you that you can Prep for this test - most kids don't.[/quote] My high school didn’t tell us anything about it, we just showed up in the cafeteria and were proctored the test. I was pissed to find out it could have used for more scholarship money or academic recognition, plus the verbal was worth double the math. The kids that got it had older siblings and in-the-know parents. And likely took only 1 practice test a couple weeks before so knew the format and points system. That said I have seen a dad quizzing vocabulary flash cards with a 12 yo at the airport. Fun stuff. Grooming them well. [/quote]
