I took the ACT in 7th grade and got a 27. (30 English, 19 math, 33 reading, and 27 science.)

Retook it this year, 9th grade, and got a 35. (35, 33, 36, and 36, respectively as above.)

What's the significance of taking the SAT in 7th grade? Is it the earliest you can take it, because I never knew so many other people took it as well..

7th: 530V, 620M (1150/1600)

Didn't even know the ACT existed until...11th grade.

For shirker: this is a copy of my Dec. 28 post

This tests at this age are called above level testing. The whole idea is NOT to prep, not even be familiar with the test. It's more of a diagnostic tool and if you do well you can go to your school and ask for (demand if necessary) placement in higher level classes with something to back you up. In our area it is offered to the students that have scored in the top 5% of grade level testing, and for many it is the first indication (on paper) that the child is HIGHLY gifted. All the courses you can take afterwards at the different centers are very nice, but very expensive. The least you'll get out of the experience is familiarity with the test. Like they told our children: "there are no good or bad scores, you should all be proud you are in the top 5%."

S: 630 CR/700 M 7th grade
760 CR/800 M/800 W 11th grade

If you want to know more Google Above Level Testing and go to the DUKE TIP site

I never even thought of taking a standardized test until after I turned 17. It was this past year, my junior year, and I turned out fine. =P

quix, why are you asking such a question? Are you joking around? From other posts, I can tell you know what the SAT is.
