[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You ought to look at test optional schools -- like Bennington, Bard. I'm sure if you go to college confidential you can find a list there. However, I'd also suggest she at least try the SAT. Our kid had a whopping 490 on the verbal, but then after Stanley Kaplan she scored in the mid-600's. [b]It was the constant repetitive taking of the test along with the test taking skills they taught, it got her over the debilitating test anxiety[/b]. She did much better in college admissions than we expected. She did Kaplan her junior year.[/quote] +1 Don't let her give up so fast. Get her help to overcome her test anxiety. Although she is sure she wants community college now, she will most likely be devastated when all of her friends/classmates leave for college. This was what happened to my niece who was so sure she wanted to take a year off after high school. [/quote]
