2009-2010 Duke
University – 7th Grade Talent Search
–
Duke University welcomes participation in
their Annual 7th Grade Talent Search – now in
its thirtieth year. It is the largest program of its
kind in the nation, representing
participation from nearly 6,000 junior high and middle
schools in the Duke TIP 16-state
region. The Talent Search identifies academically
talented 7th graders based on standardized
test scores achieved while attending elementary or
middle school.
Candidates are identified and invited to complete either
the SAT Reasoning Test or
the ACT Assessment college entrance examination. Duke
TIP then provides the
participants with comparative information concerning
their academic abilities and
resources for unique educational opportunities.
