[quote=Anonymous]You are confusing study and preparation for a task or career with standardized "test prep." We are talking about the latter, not the former here. "Test prep" companies have a very defined purpose. If you are not familiar with them, take a look at a few of their websites. They provide coaching for very specific standardized tests. And they charge a lot of money for this coaching. If your child has been studying and working hard at a wide variety of educational activities, there should be no need for this type of extensive coaching to take a standardized test. I contend they'd be better off reading a wide variety of good books from the public library.[/quote]
