[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Then how come private kids don't perform very well in standardized tests? Even #1 Boarding School (Smartest Boarding School thread) wasn't very impressive. [/quote] Because most students at these schools aren't taking such courses and because standardized tests aren't designed to differentiate among students working at that level. Math on the SAT maxes out at Algebra 2 doesn't it. And nothing the SAT tests would enable you to identify a gifted writer or literary critic. Standardized tests are designed to do a rough sort among a population with wide variations in prep and ability by asking questions that, typically, can be machine scored. [/quote]
