[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kids are at a high-performing public school and do not use tutors. Many of their friends do, but we cannot afford to have one. My kids did well in school (mostly A’s). We did use SAT prep for one child and he was able to increase his score significantly, but it did not result in admission to any high-performing college because we did not have all the other things that come with that (no club sports, national awards or non-profits, etc.) SAT prep is no longer affordable for us now. My second child did not do prep, had a lower SAT score, but still got into college with the same amount in merit aid as my first born.[/quote] Oh, and they are in college now and doing really well. Resilience definitely helps.[/quote]
