Scholastic Aptitude Test (SAT)
The SAT is a standardized assessment that helps colleges assess the qualifications of applicants for advanced study in college. Schools use the test as one predictor of academic performance in a college program.
Designed by experts, the SAT test preparation program uses actual SAT questions and provides an easy to follow preparation plan. The SAT comprises two main sections: Math and Evidence-Based Reading and Writing. The Evidence-Based Reading and Writing section is divided into two subtests—the Reading Test and the Writing and Language Test. There is also an optional Essay section. Test taking strategies are emphasized including question formats, time managements, and informed guessing.
Students generally take the SAT during their junior year of high school. Our SAT test prep course is ideal for rising juniors that may be taking the test for the first time, for high school students who have already taken the exam and wish to improve their score, and those younger students who are curious about the latest format of the SAT.
