SAT
An Important SAT Preparation Strategy (That almost everybody overlooks!)
By: Mike Barrett
Application Boot Camp SAT Guru
Everybody knows that taking practice tests is an important part of getting
ready for the SAT. And most people know that you should only use real
practice tests written by the College Board, instead of fake questions
written by companies like Kaplan or The Princeton Review.
New SAT Policy — Breaking News!
Good news! Finally, the College Board announced today that starting in March of 2009, SCORE choice will be back! Hooray! That means that from now on, anyone who is NOT a senior will be able to pick and choose exactly which SAT I and II tests (subject tests) to send to colleges. This is great as there will not be a penalty to take a test for “practice” as no one will see it!
