[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sep and Oct birthday kids can test-in. Quite a few of my DC’s grademates did this and was successful. Though it’s a disadvantage at HS, when your classmates are old enough for an internship or summer job and can legally drive. For boys, lots of ppl think redshirting would be better than the other way around. I didn’t believe in this when my son was young and academically advanced. Now when looking retrospectively, this suggestion makes a lot of sense.[/quote] Those aren't really disadvantages at all. You aren't driving earlier by being held back a year as you cannot change your birthday. You can get a job at 15, but you just have to wait the following year, which isn't a big deal. I am glad we tested in and sent our child. I cannot imagine them being in HS for an entire year when they are 18.[/quote]
