Nope, not true. Some kids requested the alternate date because January 28 was Chinese New Year.

you can't chose to take the test in February. Unless you missed the test and have a drs note.

Does anyone know if the prompts will be the same for the alternate test date? It wouldn't seem right if they were the same. DD has already been approached by a couple of kids who chose to take the test in February.

DD said it was one of those "what?/ oh now i get it!"
type questions. Gotta LOL though, the kids from prep classes were
complaining that they had prepared various science essays...

My son thought the math reasoning was easy and was very succinctly able to explain it. He got the same answer as his friends. Almost concerned he didn't "show his work" enough with his words.....but he says he was able to easily talk through his steps and as a result came to the answer without too much filler....now just time to wait!

Yes. Said math problem was difficult. DD was very surprised.

Was a tough math problem this year too

i heard this year's problem also was Math reasoning for the Essay part.

no one cares about the answer but the thought process and I don't know how they find that out

But let's assume if they were looking for a specific answer with a clear response, what would the answer be? 1:30?
