Another post inspired me to post my first question. In my field of work, an achievement test is a measure of how much of a subject you have learned. Often it is used to evaluate the system that is educating you. It is not something that you prepare for, beyond applying yourself at school. Maybe you “practice”, if your school want’s to look good.In the context of college admissions, or elite college admission perhaps, what does it mean when you prepare for weeks or more to score near 800?
