DD10 took Explore for the first time last Sat. She was also given the questions about friends and school, but her impresion was that those were pertaining to kids in gifted programs.
Her first impresion was that Science was the most difficult and that she was mostly guessing that section. Followed by Math and then LA. She did have plenty of time to answer and she also felt that the questions in the booklet send home were much, much easier.
We are not really hoping for great results, she is being accomodated as of now so nothing is really riding on those numbers. She took the test mostly because she wanted to follow her older brother (he tok Plus in 5th rade). She says she wants to do it again next year :-)
