[quote]My child might not need to study; doing very well at an HGC now. But I'll probably prepare just in case; you never know if they'll have a bad day testing and every bit helps.[b] Besides, why does MCPS publish examples of the exams? They didn't do this for elementary magnet test in I don't think.[/quote][/b]
Your shifty ethical bar is now dictated by whether MCPS publishes examples of the exams?  You are twisting in the winds.
If MCPS does not publish examples it is unethical and cheating to study and prep' but, if they publish examples then it's open season for prepping and cheating?

You're still adorable!  But yes, publishing sample tests imply that they want you to prepare/practice. From the MCPS handbook:

How can I practice?
Please review the following sample items carefully.The samples are presented to you so that you can understand the format of the test. The questions do not reflect the exact content of the test. The preparation you receive by completing the practice items and reviewing the explanations of the answers ensures that, on the day of the test, the committee is getting
an accurate picture of the concepts you understand and the skills you have, instead of simply seeing how well you understand directions.[/quote]
