In today's episode, I discuss the importance of the SAT (especially the math section) for students interested in service academies and ROTC scholarships.

In a perfect world, your child will be at least one grade-level ahead in math by the time they enter high school.

This will allow them to take the SAT at the very beginning of 11th grade.

A 7th-grade math placement test is often what determines whether or not your child can move ahead in math. Be very aware of this fact when it happens.

If you know a parent with a child interested in the service academies and ROTC, make sure they listen to this episode as early in middle school as possible.
