[quote=Anonymous] It does seem that, right or wrong, essays and recommendations will be a lot more important. That just further advantages wealthy families who can pay for essay coaching and private schools where the teachers/counselors have fewer kids and really know how to write recommendations. I'd guess more private school kids already have an SAT score too. We went to an event about preparing for college when DS was in 10th. The person talking about test prep said she normally sees the private school students coming in the Fall for prep so they can start testing early, allowing more time for multiple tests. The public school kids typically show up in winter planning for a first test in Spring. Fortunately, we followed their advice and DS took the Dec SAT and got a great score, which will stand out even more when so many won't have a score.[/quote]
