Did they practice or do any tutoring? Ds did well on the 10th grade test this year, but there was definitely room for improvement, especially in math. Just wondering how to approach it.

DP but does he know how to use desmos?

Went down from 1500 to 1470 in NJ. DC expected a lower score as DC thought it was much harder this year. It's fine.

My kid's score came out tonight and she went up 200 points from spring. Nothing close to a great score, but still nice to see it going in the right direction. Would be great if it was actually harder than last year's.

1480. Won’t make dc cutoff for NMSF but that’s fine.

My kid got same score, but thought this year’s “felt harder”.

NP. Same score as last year? There is supposed to be an increase in score representing growth in academic skills over time. Some students' scores are not making sense.

Scored very well both times. Not much room for movement.

Congrats! That’s a huge jump!

DC was in the first set of scores released, not tonight’s, but this was true for them as well.

And when I say scores dropped from last year, I am referring to individual students whose score went down.
