[quote=Anonymous][/quote][quote]The playing by the rules quote was brought into this through an article link provided by the poster who is very concerned about the "entitled." The article's definition of "entitled" was the opposite of what the poster was thinking. "Play by the rules" in this case refers to keeping to good ethical standards, but the more important part of the full quote was referring to opportunity for all. 
"Test prep" has been defined numerous times in this thread.[b] It refers to going over questions that are so like the questions on the test that the child comes out of the test feeling that he has seen and almost memorized the questions in advance.[/b] It leads to a result that is not a true reflection of a child's abilities to quickly understand new material.

And, yes, trying to confuse the issue with multiple possible alternative definitions is a very Clintonian thing to do![quote]

Thank you for providing the definitive and operative definition as well as your clarification.

By that definition, the highly learned and academically motivated Fairfax County, would qualify with a majority of their children as well ..."test prepped".  Thanks for you clarification.  Most from my community in remote Montana would fall into the category of "test unprepped".
