Nomatter how we feel about them, tests are a reality in students’ lives.  As students progress to high-school-levelcoursework (like Algebra I), new tests are required in Ohio.  Graduation from both public and private highschools requires more tests, but there is an alternative path that can beattractive to gifted students.  Meanwhile,the testing series of the SAT and ACT, so prominent in college admissions, areundergoing changes.  Still, though, one particulartest holds the opportunity for huge scholarships for students nationwide, but studentshave to follow the process and know how to maximize that opportunity.  Join Gifted Intervention Specialist AnneFlick, who will share the latest news on the new Ohio state tests starting in 3rdgrade, the testing requirements and alternatives for Ohio graduation,above-grade-level testing options for gifted students, and, finally, the formatof the college admissions tests and all that hangs on them.
