Ep. 78 | My Deal With The Devil

Does your child get As in English? If you think that translates into high Verbal SAT scores, think again.

Show Notes:

If you have a 5th, 6th, 7th, 8th, 9th, or 10th grader, this episode is for you. I advise parents on how to help their young children prepare for the Verbal section of the SAT/ACT - from a very early age. I also try to disabuse parents of the assumption that good grades in English class necessarily translate into high SAT Verbal scores. They don't. Find out why not and what you can do about it.
