College Prep

You have a dream. College. You want to make a difference. Change the world perhaps. Be somebody. Do something worthwhile. Great! For many of us, the path to these dreams is college. It’s the first important stop along the journey called life. And college prep? It’s one of the first steps along that path. Although there are several factors that determine your admittance to a college, your standardized test scores on the SATs or ACTs are an important part of the selection criteria.

ACT

The ACT test assesses high school students’ general educational development and their ability to complete college-level work. Unlike the SAT, it is not an aptitude test. It is similar to the SAT in that it is mostly multiple choice, but unlike the SAT, it covers four major skill areas: English, Math, Reading and Science. The ACT also offers an optional writing test.

ACT scores are widely accepted as a criteria for college admissions, and because they test what the student has learned, or is being taught in high school, students are typically more comfortable taking the ACTs than general aptitude tests.

SAT

The SAT is a standardized test taken by thousands of (primarily) high school seniors each year, the results of which are a major selection criteria to colleges. While not all schools require the SAT, most do. The SAT tests students on material they learn in high school, focusing on the ability of the student to apply that knowledge in various problem scenarios. The critical thinking skills used to solve the problems are necessary to succeed in college. While the SAT is definitely not the only indicator of college success, it has proven to be a reliable measure of college success in the United States for decades.

PSAT

The PSAT is the Practice-SAT which is very similar to the SAT, in that it contains three sections: math, verbal and English grammar, but unlike the SAT, it does not contain an essay section. While some students take the PSAT in their sophomore year to get a feel for the exam, most do so in their Junior year of high school. Not only are the PSATs a great way to experience the SAT, they are are widely used by colleges as a criterion for admission. But most importantly, PSAT scores are used to qualify for the National Merit Scholarship Competition. Each PSAT section is scored on a scale of 20 to 80 and these scores are combined to create the National Merit Scholarship selection index.
