When you say that she "bombed" the test, what was her score? She sounds like a bright young lady, but if she is not doing well on standardized tests, it is better to find this out sooner than later. If it truly is a bombed test, with scores below 30%, you should have her tested for learning disabilities.

I have worked with MANY straight A students who bomb the SSAT and then discover a lot of interesting things about their learning styles. Better to figure it out before high school, rather than struggling later.

On the other hand, if your daughter scored about 60%, that is the average score for a bright, high achieving kid, so don't worry. Only a small % of kids score in the 80s and 90s.
