This helpful guide shows parents how they often unknowingly sabotage their children's success on one of the most stressful standardized tests--the SAT. In recent years, the SAT has become a fearsome psychological undertaking as the competition for slots at major universities has quadrupled. Success on the SAT is now as much a matter of navigating the maze of changing testing structures, crippling self-conceptions, and family dynamics as memorizing vocabulary words. This book shows parents that the way we think about the SAT is just as important as the answers teens fill in.
