Standardized tests are an important part of your college application, and are used for awarding admissions and merit-based scholarships.  The two tests used are the SAT and the ACT. Colleges don’t prefer one or the other, so explore which one suits you better! Junior year is the perfect time to start preparing for these tests, as every junior will take the ACT during school in late February or early March. While test requirements have been waived the past two years due to COVID it is likely that they will be required next year. This means Juniors, Sophomores, and Freshman should plan to take the SAT or ACT as part of their college application process. Ms. Butner will have practice tests, and there are plenty of online study resources such as khanacademy.org.

​

See Ms. Butner for information about test dates and registration, or visit collegeboard.org for the SAT and act.org for the ACT.
