[quote=Anonymous]If your school is any good, they should prepare the students for their first standardized test. Many privates do a prep test in 2nd grade to prepare the kids for the first real ERB in 3rd. If your school is not doing this, yiou should ask them to consider it. The ERB is actually pretty important and, if taken correctly, very accurate in assessing where your child is in relation to his peers. Unlike many other standardized tests, the individual results are ranked in accordance with the other local privates (good way to assess how your child's school is doing as well as your child), privates nationally, and certain suburban publics (usually the most highly regarded). If your child is aplnning on applying to a different school for 4th or 6th or 7th or 9th, the ERBs will be part of his/her application and are weighted pretty heavily by many ADs.[/quote]
