[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My dc had a 1050 psat, and were hoping to get to 1200-1300. She struggles with test taking, anxiety and some of the math thought processes. We’re in session 2 of 8 summer sessions w a tutor so we’ll see how she does in August. [/quote] The key is to do 1-1 tutoring along with practice tests weekly. You need to simulate real test situations (start the exam at 8am not noon). You need to do it exactly as the real test goes, with the limited breaks. [/quote] This is helpful, and yes we are doing 1:1 test prep with homework in between. The practice test advice you give mirrors my experience as well for grad school tests. We’re not aiming for t20 here, just the best possible test outcome for DD who is more of a B student, even with effort. She is motivated. Fingers crossed![/quote]
