[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Grizzled veteran of the MCPS Magnet Hunger Games here and people absolutely prep, even if they don't call it that. Sure, they may just call it tutoring, but when you are paying for access to above-grade-level instruction, that's prepping. Particularly when admission is based solely on a test that measures exposure to materials. It's slightly less of an issue at the level of CES admissions than MS and HS magnet admissions, though. [/quote] The first day of my kids CES class a few years ago the teacher asked the students how many of you had practiced taking the CogAT ahead of time. He said 75% of the kids raised their hands. [/quote] 1) That might depend on the CES 2) Practice, in at least some cases, might be a parent looking up a few sample questions so their kids know what the test will be like 3) I don't think kids practice for the MAP in the same way[/quote]
