<p>For those who like the SAT as a measure of how kids are prepared for college I share this interesting contrast between private and public education in my own household.
My two kids- both have similar LDs- however one went to private school, and one public.
Their SAT numbers are similar- 10 or so points different.
However the oldest took the older SAT with just two sections and the younger who attends public school, has similar numbers but with the three section SAT.
Her grades BTW are similar or better , in the districts ( some would say the states) pre-eminent high school, compare to her sisters GPA in private school.</p>
