Thanks.   cody Citizen Username: Cody Post Number: 689 Registered: 5-2001 Posted on Tuesday, March 15, 2005 - 11:19 pm:        My son did. He didn't think it was all that much more difficult, or even very different than previous SATs. He took it in March because that's the test for which the College Board will make available a comparison of the student's answers and the correct answers. It's a good tool if your child wants to analyze his or her performance and finetune it before taking the test again in May or June.   joeltfk Citizen Username: Joeltfk Post Number: 134 Registered: 8-2001 Posted on Wednesday, March 16, 2005 - 8:49 pm:        I worked for a major test prep company while it was prepping kids for the NEW SAT. If anyone has any specific questions about it, feel free to ask. Here's a fun little quiz on the recent changes that I produced for them: http://www.kaptest.com/flash/mythbuster/01-myth-n-promo/popup.html   mayflower2258 Citizen Username: Mayflower2258 Post Number: 91 Registered: 6-2002 Posted on Wednesday, March 16, 2005 - 11:31 pm:        cody: Thanks for your response...so it's not so bad or not that much worse than for what you've been prepped !
