Meaning that if you have money you will get a better score than if you don't. If that's not a problem to you then fine but I think its a little messed up.

Is it just owning the money which grants you a better score? In that case that's the problem indeed. But if you think that investing money in your or your kids development is a problem I tend to disagree. That's the whole point of having money.

I understand what your trying to say but paying for a tutor to specifically train you for the SAT is not giving your child a better education. (Well it kind of is because they'll get into a better college from a better SAT score but training for the test itself doesn't really make you more educated)

If if just getting a better education gives you a better score on the SAT then that is a "problem" impossible to fix. However, teaching kids tips and tricks to do better on the SAT would have minimal effect on their actual intelligence. That right there is the main problem: Preparing for the SAT has no substantial increase in intelligence but does make it seem like you do.

I don't have much time when I'm writing this so if your confused by something just ask

I see your point now, and I do agree with it. Sorry, but it was rather difficult to get it from the original message.

Hey thanks for reading it! I thought it was a misunderstanding! (I'm sometimes not very clear)
