[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My son is on waitlist of Cold Spring. His score is 141. Sigh.[/quote]

WOW, 141 got waitlisted. I am wondering how much it needs to get into cold spring.

143 wait pool, cold spring
another friend, 142, cold spring, wait pool[/quote]

That's crazy. Given the limited number of questions in the test, there is probably only one or two questions difference between those who got admitted and who got waitlisted.[/quote]

Yep. [b]The test this year is very trick to different kids abilities[/b]. That's why it was emphasized in the mail that test score is only one factor being evaluated and I sense it might be the least important factor.[/quote]

What do you mean? [/quote]

Test this year is easier and shorter with less questions. It's hard to differentiate one's ability by just looking at the score. One wrong question may cause big difference in the score. I guess the speed of answering the question may also count towards the final score. 
BTW, who knows what the total score is?[/quote]
