Mt. Pleasant Classical Academy

Here’s a new question to add to the question-list you should have by your side when you call the local public or private school to sign your DC up for the once-in-a-lifetime-this-test-really-counts-PSAT:

Ask whether the school is going to have construction going on.  Ask whether they will have a BUZZ SAW running directly below the window where your CAPD DC who can’t stand noise while working is trying to take his once-in-a-lifetime-this-test-really-counts-PSAT.

Ask also whether the proctor will tell the students how much time is remaining, and whether he/she will be doing this at 5 and 2 minutes.  Thank god ds was wearing a watch, just a recent addition, so he could check his time on his own.  However ds said it also meant that he was stopping and looking at the time rather than relying  upon the teacher to say that they had 5 minutes or 2 minutes left.   Very strange since in all his other testing (SAT twice before) the teachers always gave 5 and 2 minute warnings. Oh well, what is is.

So much for any NMSQT.
