Need focused SSAT advice for verbal disaster

@Calliemomofgirls It’s complicated. Although @PrepDad2018 probably has a viable strategy, at least based on his anecdotes, our child skipped the questions they didn’t know and scored quite well (high 90’s). It’s tough to know what the right approach is for each student. Your daughter is competing with all kind of students, including expensively prepped kids, for sure. But also kids that take the test once, with no prep, consultants, etc. Our kiddo didn’t do any prep or practice tests, just spent the fall doing normal school academics and reading (attends a LPS, in a state not known for great education), and took the test just once.

If we’ve learned one thing reading this forum it’s that there are no guarantees, or perfect formulas. Don’t give yourself too hard of a time for what you did or didn’t do.
