[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is hilarious. Yes parents let’s teach our elementary school kids test taking skills just so they can do better in 11th grade on the SAT or college entrance exams. It’s not enough that they are taking way too many standardized tests ad nauseam every year and sure don’t get enough practice or the swing of it by the time SAT comes around 9 years later. [/quote] But some of the "test skills" people are citing derogatorily in this thread are things like "read the instructions" (since apparently adults just skip those & pick one of 3 "correct" answers without stopping to wonder why there are 3 correct answers). So actually, yes, learning to do what is actually asked of you -- by, for instance, reading the instructions -- is a key life skill at least as important as memorizing coin names.[/quote]
