Well that is decided, he won't take the Chemistry test this year. DS took 1/2 of a sample test and wouldn't do any more because he wasn't motivated. Of the half he did he left 10 questions unanswered, all about solubility. He did fine on the problems he did answer. He thinks he could do well on it if he self studied how to do solubility as he said it didn't look hard. But knowing DS it's not going to happen. I'd rather push him to study for the Math 2 Subject test and have him do well on that. We don't even know if he will NEED any subject test yet. He can decide next year if he wants to take any Chemistry subject tests.

This also makes it clear that I WILL be finding DS a SAT test prep class this summer. He could do it at home, but he seems to need the formal setting of a classroom for motivation.
