I heard the math was the hardest section. But I am sure that this varies by student.

Scale goes up to 160 as of last year.


So should the scores have gone up about 10 points?

it seems to be consistent with my dc's experience at the test. the verbal was easy and the other two parts were hard and could not have finished

This timeline seems crazy to me - we need to make a decision two days after the parent tour and before the child gets to tour. Is that right?


Last year, the open house was for kids and parents. You go together, then at some point, the kids will be taken by the current 5th grade HGC kids for their own Q/A while the parents have their's. From what I remember, you have one week to decide after this.
