[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I thought this forum has supportive ppl no matter the content is . Some bullies are out here too . I now get where the bully kids come from . No one here is ready to answer the question of 160 CoGAT scores of all those kids . Those parents did prep for years . Only to prep for this year is too much ? [/quote]

Don't listen to these people.

Half of them just want to announce that their kid didn't prep for the test and they still got in.
They want to act like your kid won't be able to handle the material if they prepped to get in.
That's bullshit.  Algebra in 7th grade and geometry in 8th grade simply isn't that challenging.
If your kid is good at math then go for it.  Don't leave it to the wind to decide if your kid gets the education they need.
Getting your kid used to studying for important exams if a good habit.
Academic ability is not like height, studying actually makes you smarter in the same way that exercising makes you stronger and healthier.

The other half have kids that couldn't get in.
They want to pretend that this stuff isn't important enough to miss a soccer practice but it's just sour grapes.
There is a population of parents that want to believe that their academically mediocre kids are actually exceptional so they just don't want to steal their childhood by making them study.
It's bullshit.  They know it and you should know it too.

This condemnation of prepping is just how some parents rationalize their own children's mediocre performance.[/quote]
