Most schools are waiving the requirement so save your $325 for the test and don't waste money on prep. Even if it wasn't being waived, they expect your child to be themselves and not rehearsed to the test. It's just an indicator. I've seen kids score very high and not get accepted and kids score average and get accepted so don't waste your money.


Our school is not waiving this requirement but i agree- i would never prep for a test geared toward age <6.

Plus kids at that age tell everything. They could find out if they wanted to.

We are waitlisted and I know it's a grade with too many boys, so a few would need to decline for us to even have a chance of getting off of the waitlist. Would love to know before the 4/10 deadline, but I figure we will not find out until after that....


What 4/10 deadline? I thought deadline was 3/20?
