“Why are you assuming that their teachers and counselors are telling them a week before?”
Because they come here afterward in a PANIC- thats why!
If YOU had been on this website for over 10 years, reading what both parents and students come here to ask, your might not have such a high opinion of all teachers, or college counselors for that matter.
"At the school I tutor at, they take their standardized tests junior year, like everyone else! "
Like everyone else??? ALL HS juniors take standardized tests Jr year???REALLY??
That would be news to many student and parents.
"I’m also not trying to argue that the playing field is level, by any stretch, just trying to argue that there are resources available to these children. "
Wrong!
There are some resources available to SOME of them, not ALL!
Your sweeping assumptions regarding that what is available to the students you see or work with is , of course available to other students , is where you lose any credibility with posters who have been trying to help HS students and their parents , who DON’T have the information or resources they need in order to prepare for college.
Stick around, read, listen , learn, and you MAY be useful to more HS students in the future.
maybe…
