Description: The Academic Talent Search (ATS) is a testing program designed primarily for students in grades 6-10. It identifies students with extraordinary mathematical and/or verbal reasoning abilities, and offers an opportunity to sharpen test-taking skills in preparation for the PSAT and SAT Reasoning Test well in advance of the crucial junior and senior years of high school. The ATS also assists participants in their placement in UCI Gifted Student Network programs.

This talent search seems like a good opportunity for families in the Orange County area of California. UC Irvine seems to offer a lot of good academic programs, even for those of pre-college age. There is a fee for the tests as well as the talent search application, but I think the cost is reasonable considering the talent search could lead to good opportunities for my child.
