The Long Awaited Arrival of a Students Honest Review of The Standardized Test

The Long Awaited Arrival of a Student’s Honest Review of 'The Standardized Test' ACT SAT Prep and College Admissions Blog As a rising senior in college, I have had my share of first hand experience with standardized tests. Through elementary, middle, and high school, students in my state (like most states) are required to take assessment exams. When I had finally suffered through my last of those, the SATs and ACTs were right around the corner ready to greet me with open arms. I, on the other hand, wasn’t sure I was quite as ready to accept the challenge. Even now, it seems as if new variations of standardized testing are being created yearly. Although a lot of controversy has surrounded the validity of this method of evaluation, for better or for worse, this is our country’s preferred approach. Instead of fighting it, I learned how to live with it. And this is an evaluation of my experience. Hopefully, if you yourself have not yet experienced the SATs and ACTs, or other similar standardized tests, this article will help ease your fears and confusion. PRELIMINARY ADVICE Any standardized test comes with a few absolutes: you have a limited amount of time to complete the exam; the subject area is large and broad; multiple choice is more than likely involved, and you are in a controlled environment. Study and prepare accordingly. Research the format of the test before test day so that there will be no surprises. Arrive prepared with pencils, erasers, water, and a calculator. I always felt better when I knew I had everything I may need. Also take a sweatshirt; you have no idea what temperature the room will be. These tests are usually scheduled for early morning. If you’re not a naturally early riser, get lots of sleep the night before, at least eight hours. THINGS I’VE LEARNED THAT WILL BENEFIT YOU AND YOUR SCORE Take the practice version of the required standardized test (e.g. PSAT for the SAT). It seems like an unnecessary evil, but trust me, it will help you. Instead of paying to take the SATs three times, I believe you can pay less to take the PSATs once, the SATs twice and end up with the same score. Experiencing a similar environment with less pressure allows you to focus more on the content of the test and allow your mind to subconsciously get used to the time crunch, material, and format. As we’ve all heard many times, practice makes perfect. Take the standardized test more than once. If at all financially possible, do it. I took the SAT, was fine with the outcome, but decided I could do better. With the SATs, you receive a breakdown of your overall score. This way, I was able to see which areas in particular I was weaker. Then, get help. I then worked with a tutorto improve on these specific subjects. This was much more helpful to me than if I had studied for the entire test before taking it because I didn’t waste time going over what I already excelled at. We all have strengths and weaknesses, and taking the SATs the first time can spell out exactly what you need to work on. An important thing to master when taking these types of tests is to complete each section. Don’t get stuck on one question. Although this is good advice for any testing situation, it is even moreso necessary in regards to standardized tests. It is easy to get anxious when you see something you don’t know. If it’s multiple choice, first eliminate any answers you know can’t be true. Among the remaining possibilities, take a [hopefully] educated guess. But whatever you do, don’t dwell. Answer the question, and move on. Circle all the ones you weren’t sure about and if there is time, go back and see if you can figure them out. There may have been an answer hidden later in the test or your brain may have retrieved some previously forgotten information. Lastly, focus. When you walk into that testing room, know that for the next few hours, this is your sole job. There should be no wondering if someone has texted you, no looking around the room for potential boyfriends/girlfriends, no planning out the next weekend with your friends. Those few hours will go by and then you won’t have any more time to do what you came there to do. These tests are important, and someone has paid for you to be there. Take advantage of it, think positively, and know that concentration is necessary to achieve the desired score. THE ACT The ACT is a relatively new test that colleges and universities, especially in the Midwest and Western states, are adopting to replace the traditional SATs. The ACT is offered across the country, and currently, most schools are accepting either test score as appropriate academic measurement. When I was deciding whether or not to take the ACT along with the SAT, it was still fairly new, especially to the East Coast. The main difference is that the ACT has a Science section, which the SAT does not. It was also to be believed that the ACT had a less strenuous and shorter Mathematics section. It was another standardized test that I didn’t want to take, but I was intrigued because Math was my lowest score on the SATs. The ACT was certainly the better test for me. The science section contains graphs and articles that one must analyze and interpret, along with requiring a basic knowledge of scientific concepts. Although subjectively the Math section did not seem easier or much shorter, I did score considerably higher on that particular area. I used my scores on the ACT for every college I applied to and was happy I took the chance and signed up for this newer version of standardized testing. I would recommend the ACT to students who struggle with math concepts and/or excel at science. Many people shy away from the scientific aspect, but it is mostly a test of logic and interpretation. Especially if you are unsatisfied with your performance on the SATs, give the ACTs a chance.

SAT and ACT Prep Course Benefits

SAT and ACT Prep Course Benefits The SAT and ACT are arguably the most important exams in a high school students life. It pays to prepare! But heres something to keep in mind: there are several must-haves when it comes to effective preparation and many teens are ill-equipped to approach the task correctly on their own. Here are seven reasons to enroll teens in an SAT/ACT prep course: To work with skilled teachers. Find a well-designed exam prep course that is taught by an experienced tutor. Ideally, that teacher will have significant SAT/ACT exam prep experience and great training and hold state certifications. Teachers like this know how to help students succeed on the SAT/ACT. To get an organized study plan in place. The problem with students studying on their own for the SAT/ACT is that they might be spending too much time on one area and not enough on another. Its natural for students to want to focus on subjects they know well, but no two students should study exactly the same way. A customized exam prep course will ensure each students needs are met and goals considered. To get a clear picture of each exams structure. Before a student dives into studying, its important to understand how the SAT differs from the ACT, especially if that student plans to take both exams. Organizers of SAT/ACT prep courses can also guide students toward the exam that fits them best and aligns with the preferences of the college(s) to which theyre applying, if applicable. To customize their study plan. Great prep courses start with individualized study plans that are created based on students practice SAT/ACT scores. This initial assessment identifies students strengths and weaknesses on the exam(s) they are taking. A customized study approach and schedule is more likely to help students improve where they need to improve. Students rarely need to study the same amount for all exam sections, after all. To learn trusted test-taking skills and strategies. The SAT and ACT are not structured or scored the same. A quality exam prep program will guide students through good strategies for answering different types of test questions, knowing how each type is graded. To improve speed. Theres no getting around it: students dont have the luxury of time during the SAT and ACT. These exams are timed and students are expected to move quickly from question to question. Too often, students struggle with this aspect of these exams. A good prep program teaches students to improve their speed and become adept at narrowing down answer choices fast so they make the most of their test minutes. To get actual test-taking practice. An initial practice test is important to ensure students focus their studying on the right areas, but prep courses usually incorporate multiple practice tests into their curriculum. This is valuable, as practice tests get students comfortable with the structure of the SAT/ACT and give them the opportunity to practice those test-taking skills. Whether your teen is taking the SAT or ACT for the first time or has taken these exams before and wants to boost those scores, Huntington can help.

5 Tips When Making A Final Decision About College

5 Tips When Making A Final Decision About College Making A Final Decision About College: 5 Tips from a San Diego College Tutor Making A Final Decision About College: 5 Tips from a San Diego College Tutor High school seniors are currently thinking about which schools they will apply to. Hopefully, at this point in the year they have chosen roughly 10 schools they want to shoot for. One of the things students probably arent thinking about this fall is which school they will ultimately choose. Of course, students who get into their dream school wont have much of a decision to make but the majority of students will end up choosing between two or three universities that could be an ideal fit. So when it does come time to make that final decision, and a four year commitment, what should students be thinking about? 1. The Campus Culture The campus culture is one of the most important aspects of collegiate life overall. Some universities offer a warm and welcoming campus culture with a variety of different students and tons of things to do. On the other hand, some campus environments can feel a little bit industrial or too spread out to form lasting relationships or enjoy on-campus activities. Neither culture is right nor wrong, it’s just about whats best for an individual student. Some students will want to take classes, work at the library, and then go home as soon as possible. Alternately, other students will prefer an all inclusive campus environment where they can essentially get everything they want without having to leave until it comes time for Thanksgiving break (Read: 4 Apps to Help with Concentration). 2. The faculty Students who are torn between two or three universities should consider the faculty. Some universities have a reputation for an involved faculty who will spend their free time having a cup of coffee with students to discuss the philosophical elements of their education. Other universities, especially those with a heavy research base, may encourage their professors to spend more time in the lab and less time with students.  Some campuses will have a large amount of full-time professors who generally have more time for students. Others will have a large number of adjunct (part time) instructors who need to teach at multiple universities to make ends meet. Again, no single situation is better or worse, its more about what the student is looking for. 3. The peer group Some colleges have a reputation for a highly social extracurricular life while others are known for students who spend the majority of their Friday night at the library. A shy student might be miserable at a party school while a social butterfly might not know what to do with their free time in a highly academic environment. In addition to thinking about the social aspect of college, students might also want to think about the student demographic. Some colleges have students from every state as well as from multiple countries, providing a diverse experience for students. Other universities may only draw from a specific state or region, creating a similar peer group (READ: 5 Things to do Before You Go Away to College). 4. The academics Although students have probably already thought about academics when applying to schools, its something they should revisit before they make their final decision. Some universities have a reputation for academic excellence that might help students get into graduate school later on. Other universities have a reputation for helping students develop professional skills, which they can utilize in the workforce upon graduation. Additionally, students who are applying undeclared should think about how many departments the university has. Because undeclared freshman will wait to choose their major until their junior year, they may be better off at a university that offers a wide variety of majors, so that the student isnt faced with the reality of transferring or ending up in an undesirable field later on (READ: College Scholarships 101: Burgers and Donuts?). 5. The connections All other things being equal, students may wish to think about the connections they can form, or not form, at their top choice universities. For instance, some universities have a reputation for an active alumni community where students can go to receive job opportunities and references. On the other hand, some colleges lack the networking environment needed to make lasting professional relationships with peers and alumni.
