[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If it is your kid's first time taking a standardized test, I would just remind him to [b]take his time[/b], answer every question (even if guessing) and to [b]check his math work[/b]. Otherwise there is not much else to do to prepare. [/quote] Caution regarding the above advice. I said the same thing to my DS who usually a fast reader the morning of his Highly Gifted Center testing in Montgomery County. When he came home, I asked how it went. His response: "The questions weren't hard, but I was reading so slow and carefully and checking my answers that I only made it half way through each section." His scores results were at 60% accuracy so he was not admitted. I guess I shouldn't have left out the "answer every question." If your child generally does well on standardized test, I would just say/do nothing....but that's just my anecdotal advice. [/quote]
