<p>I agree with glido’s post above both in terms of fitting in student’s own schedule AND eliminating the pressure that could arise from running out of test dates before apps are due.</p>
<p>Our guidance dept suggests that all Jrs take their first test Jan of Jr year, but once you factor in the inevitable snow days (well, power outage days due to storms these past two years), the midterms end a day or two before the SAT, leaving the students more stressed than they need to be.</p>
