[quote=Anonymous][quote] If you have to prep, prep by enrichment.[/quote] Eureka. You finally got it. Prepping by enrichment ...reading , writing and problem solving is the sine qua non of prepping (This is bigtime test prepping -- year round). It prepares for [b]all [/b]tests (e.g., WPSSI, AAP, SSAT, ERB, SAT, ACT). We all get it. It's the dcummies here who think their kids are smart and gifted and don't prep for tests. These idiots do not fully understand what prepping means. They do not understand what raw intelligence is? And they do not know how to measure it and what instrument to use? Of course, these after school tutoring and summer enrichment camp families prep their kids. They have been prepping their kids since birth. Then somehow, by deft of nuance, these liars claim they never prep their kids. Crap. Now, tell me how you measure raw intelligence ... if raw intelligence is not a manifestation of life long enrichment preparation (reading, writing and problem solving)? Do you tell families to stop prepping and enriching in order to level the playing field? Get over it, with all this prepping and enriching in NOVA, how on earth do you separate raw intelligence from achievement and learned behaviour? The SAT tried to claim their aptitude test was an "aptitude" test measuring raw intelligence in the 1970s. They have given up that claim as their money making machine was gamed by studious prepping and increasing their scores by hundreds of points. You must think the rest of us are stupid if prepping only means you have to take a registered Princeton Review course, or some other "certified" course for AAP. Use your heads and think critically. Kids go on an prep. Prep for life. Prep continuously or just around test time. Some of your parents think there is a distinction and prepping around test time is cheating but prepping year round makes you smart and gifted. Of course, prepping year round is more enduring (as will be your scores). Upwardly mobile NOVA parents continue to delude yourselves your kids do not prep for tests (...they just simply prep year round so they can't be cheating)? [/quote]
