Standardized tests, such as the SAT I Reasoning Test and the ACT, are very stressful events that students avoid as much as possible. These tests last for hours, with a few short breaks spread throughout the ordeal. Picking the right test site for you can go a long way in reducing the amount of brainpower that is taken away from focusing on the test. The general answer to what is the best test site is that it's the one that is most comfortable for you. The following five factors will help you get yourself and your test site on the same team.





We welcome your feedback:  

Please let us know if you have any suggestions for how we might improve our programs .  Also, please let us know how your child did on their test.  We offer follow up programs for students who are going to take additional tests.

Sincerely,
