Some thoughts on the new SAT debuting in Spring 2016

If you are a high school sophomore, you may have heard that big changes are coming to the SAT next year.  The College Board recently released some sample questions, and all signs point to a very different test compared to the current SAT.  What does this mean for you? If you plan to take the ACT, no problem.  But if you prefer the current SAT, you may want to consider finishing your testing early -- by January of your Junior year, before the new test is unveiled. This means thinking about test prep by this coming summer if you want to give yourself the option to take the test multiple times in the fall.  We would suggest taking a practice ACT and SAT sometime this summer to determine which test is right for you.  For more details about the new SAT test, check out the following article by Jed Applerouth of Applerouth Tutoring Services:  A Harder SAT: College Board release foreshadows the most challenging test to date.
