Test preparation

At the secondary school level, good test preparation skills are more important than ever. Tests in the classroom, and outside of the classroom, can help open many doors to your future.

Being tested is not easy for everyone, but there are specific strategies and attitude adjustments that can be used to help make sure the score you earn accurately reflects what you know about the subject.

The College Board has created an easily navigable site that enables students, parents, colleges, and educators to learn about the new SAT. Visit Introducing the New SAT 2005, which includes information about the field trials, services for students, and the new diagnostics.

Below are several useful links that can help you achieve your testing goals:
