While Researching, I found some interesting information that helps prove my point that music does truely help those who allow it to...
In 2001, students participating in music scored higher on the SATs than students with no arts participation.
• Scores for students in music performance classes were 57 points higher (Verbal) and 41 points higher (Math).
• Scores for students in music appreciation classes were 63 points higher (Verbal) and 44 points higher (Math).
