[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DC does great in school but not on standardized tests. They also have pretty bad test anxiety. For instance, on the PSAT, they scored about 1400 on the practice exam, then 1220 on the real exam. For the SAT, how many times should they take it to get a reasonable score? I feel like they’re capable of around 1500 if taken several times and superscored. Would the colleges care? Do scores improve a lot each time they take the test?[/quote] If the kid really needs merit aid, the sky’s the limit. If the kids is just a prestige worshipper, twice, and the kid should apply to places based on the lower score. It’s a lot more fun to go to a school and be too smart than to go and be an underachiever. [/quote]
