I believe Miss Sandra is a former Wolmer's Girls

I did not do so well on my English SAT because of the British spelling. I do not believe this is the case here though.

Maybe higher standards for Henglish teachaz locally?

There are cultural factors at work for terms, phrases & British English etc. After mashing up CXC English, I messed up my college English entrance exam. I retook it and did fine.

Note, this is NOT SATs. This is GMAT, Graduate Management Admissions Test. This test for for people with at least a first degree.

Even back in my time the lowest I heard any good school accepting was 550 and only for people with exceptional scores in one side, like a non-native truster who aced the Match portion of the test.

It has reportedly gotten worse and you need minimum 650 to be considered by the top schools.

Willi, preparation is key. Often times I talk to players about their SAT scores and they tell they have a "not so bad" SAT score but "them never study" for it. Practice test, classes, studying and taking it serous is a problem. They jus think they can walk in and get good grades.

Hmmm it seems like it might not be the English then....

[Willi]

These are Uni grads....People need to stop referring to SAT which is a high skool leavers exam!!!

GMAT is like MCAT/LSAT!!!!!

Willi it nuh matter them have to study for it. You know how people up here prepare for their GMAT to get good scores? You can't just walk in and take it.

Preparation is key. It's like leaving college with

a 4 years degree and going straight to to do your PE exam without any preparation unless yuh supa talented.
