[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]10th grader just got his scores, 760M and 710RW. He’s very disappointed in the reading score even though he did nothing to prep. Likely to improve for 11th grade?[/quote]

[b]Most kids with any serious shot at NMSF seem to study over the summe[/b]r and take the August SAT as a warm-up.  Verbal is the harder score to influence through study so be prepared that even the smartest kids may need some luck on getting a question set that works well for them.

Ok, I’ll bite.  Our daughter got a 226.  Could she have gotten a 223 or whatever MDs cutoff will be without studying?  Maybe.  But realistically the majority of even very smart kids are studying if they want to increase their chances.[/quote]

I could have written this exact post! Additionally, NMSF tend to have extremely busy 11th grade years, so studying for the SAT the summer before 11th allows that test to be more casual, not as much pressure and just less rushed.[/quote]
