[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It is not an essential life skill. I have not read a book for pleasure since elementary school. Maybe middle school. I have college degrees and a career.[/quote] Yes, but it will help immensely with the ACT and SAT.[/quote] DP - I also have a kid who also stopped reading books for pleasure in middle school. He did quite well on the ACT. He's just graduated college and working. It's one of my hobbies but not his. And that's okay [/quote] That's wonderful, but speaking generally.. before you get to the age of actively prepping for the SAT around 10th grade, the only thing you can really do to improve your ability to succeed on the exam is read. A lot. Take with that what you will.[/quote]
