I tutor in a middle school and rencently they were told that they can drop all of their other curriculum and only do test prep for the next ten weeks. So teachers are dropping Social Studies, Science, and Language Arts. All the teachers must drop their reading curriculum. The kids are good at test taking, but they cannot think for themselves. How is this possibly a good thing? Is anyone as outraged about this as I am?

I'm a sophomore this year and I just got my PSAT scores back. Here are my scores:

English- 51 ("Scored higher than 83% of sophomores")
Math- 63 ("Scored higher than 95% of sophomores)
Writing- 54 ("Scored higher than 87% of sophomores)

My total score was a 168.

Now my question is are these scores great, good, okay, or what?
I know they're not bad, but how good exactly are they? I'm looking to go to Vanderbilt in Tennessee, and so I'd like to know if that's plausible given my scores.

And I am going to take it next year obviously, so how much should my scores jump? 5 points, 10 Points???

A recent question about the test was answered incorrectly.
1. The examiner will let you keep the topic card while you give your answer in phase 2 of the speaking test, and you will have 1 minute to prepare before you have to start.
2. You can ask the examiner to clarify a question you do not understand at anytime during the test (and should do so) - you will not get marked down for this. If the examiner does not explain the question and moves on, do not be concerned, you will not be marked down (unless you do it a lot and are therfore showing that you are unable to speak on any issue)
3. You should speak for as long as possible in phase 2 and 3 of the exam (the examiner will stop you if you hit 2 minutes in phase 2) although there is no direct penalty for speaking for only 1 minute - or less provided you answered other questions at length. You need to prove you are able to speak at length in English on the topics you are asked about.

I'm a sophomore and I just took the PSAT, and the deadline for registering for the SAT is December 26. I just kind of worried that I'll get a bad score, so I want to know if the score I submit to colleges is the best score, an average score, or if all the scores are submitted?

from what I have seen, Taks testing, the system, seems very flawed. I live in texas and, live with, around and, work with a bunch of High School graduates, who can barely spell their own name and, dont even ask them to count anything. the way it seems to work is, the teacher either passes a set percentage of students, regardless of their progress or, take a paycut (like they have a lot to cut from) and, start looking for another job. is there any way to get rid of this stupidity before We doom another generation of illetirate graduates ? maybe they could take a step back and, help the last generation with what they were cheated out of.

I'm an international student and I'm now applying to some US colleges. But the problem is that my SAT score slightly falls out of the middle 50% range by 10-40 points for my reach schools( Lehigh, Brandeis, etc) ,which means my score is within the bottom 25%. Now I'm so worried. I know they're reach schools to me after all but can someone please tell me how "risky" I am if my score is not even within the middle 50% for the schools I'm applying to? Does the fact that I'm top 5 % in my school might help a little? Thanks

For both the Oct. and Dec. 2006 tests, I got the same score. My math score decreased on the Dec. test and as a result, my Critical Reading and Writing increased. On the Oct. test I got a 710 on the math section and I really like this math score. Does anyone know how the UCs are going to evaluate my scores in this scenario? Will they take the highest individual scores from each test in this case?

Sorry for the long message... I have a tendency of explaining more than what is necessary!
