This is a question for Ben Jones. Daughter has a highly idiosyncractic approach to math. She’s a junior in HS and has the highest grade in the school in AP Calc, and is tutoring numerous younger kids in algebra/geometry. The deeper she gets into math the more she loves it. The catch is that so far her standardized test scores disconnect from her affinity and her performance in class. She’s testing in the mid 600’s on math in the PSAT/SAT preps. If she can’t pull a 700 on math SAT should she even apply?
