[quote=Anonymous][quote]Do you have evidence that practicing these mental exercises improves performance on the test? And yes, preparing well in mathematics, reading, and writing presumably does help you on the test. But that's not test prep. That's schooling. [/quote] Many groups have enrichment schooling in these areas [math, reading (includes vocabulary) and writing skills (includes grammar) ] after school and on the weekends [for HGC, magnets and TJ]. The results on admission to all these programs is outstanding. Albeit, all these kids are bright and many would probably get in anyway. Some work on these topic areas alone (self-study) or in groups. This is their "test prep". Either way the results are fantastic!!!! [/quote]
