[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have a DD who ranks in the top of her public high school, gets straight A's in rigorous classes and 5's in her AP exams. We hired an expensive, one-on-one tutor to work with her on SAT practice. Her actual exam grade was only something like 30 points higher than her first practice exam. It was a total waste of time. [/quote] What were the before and after scores?[/quote] I left those out. You can ask or assume, but that's private.[/quote] But it matters. If she was at 1470, the room for growth is pretty narrow, and 30 points got her to 1500, which is an important threshold for some schools. If she was at 1270, yes, 30 points is disappointing for all of that work.[/quote]
