[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Op here - we are upcounty so not as concerned about busing. How about college placement? Extracurricular? Tips for getting in?[/quote] One tip for for getting in - Top performance in entrance exams matters. Exam is based on the older SAT format. Vocabulary and writing skills are very important. Math looks for content mastery, speed and accuracy - math, stats and probability, geometry, algebra 1 is tested. Use the college board SAT book to study. For vocabulary it is important that the student is an avid reader throughout middle school. Math skills can be build up quickly but mastery of language comes from practice over time. [/quote]
