<p>I should also add that for my non-math DD, it was really a relief and positive motivator for her to be able to sit for Math the second time and not approach it as a general beast, but see it as a collection of topics she either knew she could handle or had a trick for handling.</p>
<p>Also, I think it is more realistic, and you get more bang for your buck, if you treat a one-off tutoring session as a last-minute “cram.” My DD did that one-on-one tutoring 2 weeks before the test, did a couple of follow-up home study sessions reinforcing the tricks the tutor taught, took one practice test in Math only–buoyed to see upward change!–and then the real administration.</p>
<p>Good luck!</p>
