Host: How should my child prepare for a standardized admissions test?

Andrew Battaile: None likes taking standardized tests. You have to take them for college and many times you have to take them for high school. The way to prepare for them, you can buy books online or at any book store. Usually that will prepare you for these kinds of tests. You can also take courses although I dont recommend you do that because it stresses your child a little bit more and letting them know, gosh, this is important I have to do well. These standardized test -- they test what you know and if your child does well in school, if they pay attention in class, that's the best way to prepare for the test.
