[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Prep and motivation both can make a very big difference. Also SES because prep costs $. My DC did not care at all about the PSAT and was not a National Merit semifinalist. But DC got motivated for the SAT, took multiple practice tests, and just barely missed a perfect score on the first try.[/quote] When it comes to the perfect scores, prep and repetitive testing make a difference. My child did no prep and was a semifinalist who ended up as a National Merit Scholar. He took the SAT one time and got a 1560, so no Presidential. It doesn't matter really, because he's at a top ten school now and very happy and doing well. [/quote]
