Our sons took their SAT just this Summer not only as part of the application for a state-wide magnet schoo but also to prepare for their college application. Having scored at a 98th percentile as Freshmen, I thought they were on track to getting better scores with a little more preparatiom until I read posts im this forum—I was shocked with how low their scores are compared to other posters. Now, I’m trying to figure out now to increase their scores. They supposedly did the Kahn academy during the Summer, and one claimed he workd hard (1430 fr 1320 in PSAT 8/9 last Oct). They finished their Alg II course in their 8th grade, so I figure they are just about as ready as anyone who has just finished his Alg II course.

Does anyone in the forum have similar experiences with improving a freshman’s score? They were in honors Lit LA and Math, and so I was disappointed with their scores because I feel they can’t improve anymore since they’ve had rigorous subject training for their classes. We have not done any prep other than Kahn. As Kahn promised, they did improve by 110 points. Am I missing somethin? I do realize we at least have 4 more years to prep. TIA
