[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Take the tutor advice with a grain of salt. My kid did not have a tutor, had good grades at Deal with minimal effort, had good PARCC scores, refused to study even a tiny bit for the Walls test but got in. Most kids don’t need a tutor. We did not apply to McKinley.[/quote] We shall see how prepared your kid is for SSAT and college admissions. Tutors are not grossly overstated but rather necessary. Just look at the USC scandal, even the wealthy are becoming desperate to place their children in good schools. Aunt Becky spent $500,000 to buy a spot for her two daughters when it would have been cheaper and wiser to spend it on a tutor. It’s clear she could have afforded the best academic prep. [/quote]
