[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No idea where to begin! My DD is just at the start of high school, but I can’t believe how much I’m already hearing about college. Sounds like a totally different scene than when I was applying. What’s important to know? Also, I hear people talking about ultra high SAT scores in this area. In my day, the kids who got 1400 or 1500 were rare, even at top prep high schools. What’s changed? Any advice welcome![/quote] So, I had the highest SAT score in my high-achieving HS back in the early 80s at 1420. That score would correlate to a much higher score now. Both the scoring scale of the test has changed and more people pay for test prep to boost scores. So kids haven't changed that much, but the landscape has changed considerably.[/quote]
