SAT WORKSHOP

ABOUT THE SAT: The Scholastic Aptitude Test (SAT) is a standardized test required for admission to all U.S. colleges and universities.  The SAT allows a school's admissions department to be able to compare students from different parts of the country and the world with one standardized measure.  In addition to the student's school marks, extra-curricular activities and admissions essay, SAT results play a crucial role in the admissions process.  The SAT evaluates the student's knowledge in the areas of writing, critical reading and mathematics.

STUDENTS WILL:

• Learn the basics of the SAT, including a complete overview of the New SAT format.
• Learn important study techniques and concepts for the three sections of the SAT.
• Learn general study and preparation skills for the test, including suggestions on dealing with test anxiety.
• Do many practice questions and practice essays and be provided with ongoing evaluation and feedback.
• Do vocabulary building exercises with the purpose of applying these to actual SAT questions.
