concentration level. Having experience in art and music also helps when it's time to take
a test.
Students who have had more than
four years of art and music score an average of 34 points higher on the verbal section of
the S.A.T. than students who don't have the experience. Students also score 18 points
higher on the math portion. Art and musical education helps students do better in other
school subjects. Art also helps kids develop problem-solving and critical thinking skills.

instrument the more cortex the brain will have. Few concert-level performers begin playing
later than the age of 10. It's much harder to learn an instrument as an adult.
