[quote=Anonymous][quote]So how did your kids do this? It's adding an unreasonable amount of stress even trying small times to study. DC would be aiming for the 1450-1500 for the schools that are not TO.[/quote] My kid didn't prep and scored 1490 and 34. He wasn't that great of a student, wasnt busy and was not taking a lot of APs - he just didn't feel like prepping. The figured the tests didn't cover anything he didn't know as a literate native English speaker or info that wasn't covered in his math classes. He took regular English throughout high school and had honors precalc in 11th grade. He didn't have any barriers like test anxiety, slow processing speed, etc. He has ADHD but also weirdly likes standardized tests so can hyperfocus and zip through them. DD did need to prep because she didn't retain much math from year to year. All kids are different but get a baseline before you add more stress.[/quote]
