Getting Into the Right College is No Accident. Be Prepared. Take a Free Practice ACT/SAT Test!

Sept. 23, 2011 - PRLog -- Most colleges require every candidate to provide, along with an extensive application, results either on the ACT or SAT test. The SAT and ACT are designed to provide college admissions officers with two things: an evaluation of readiness for academic success in college, and a common yardstick to use in comparing students from a wide range of educational backgrounds.

“Putting time into preparation for the ACT and SAT is valuable because it builds confidence, reduces test anxiety, and reveals the student’s strengths and areas of improvement from each practice test to the next,” says Heather Abello, Franchise Support Specialist with College Nannies & Tutors Development. “College admissions tests should be taken seriously by students because they can bolster a college application. In some cases, schools will offer scholarships for scores that are in the top five to ten percentile.”

The free practice ACT or SAT – the student chooses - will be given on Oct. 8th, 2011 at the Far West Learning Center, beginning at 8:45am. The tests will start at 9am; the ACT will conclude at 12:30pm. Far West Learning Center mimics the setting and timing of the actual ACT and SAT tests. Students will grade their own test immediately upon completion and will leave with their results. You also have the chance to schedule a free consultation with our Learning Center Manager to go over the results.

To register, please contact College Nannies & Tutors at the Far West Learning Center at 512.372.8385, or send an email to austintx@collegetutors.com. Registration closes by 3pm the Friday before each test.
