This Test, That Test: A Session on the New SAT for the High School Class of 2017

6:30 pm – 7:30 pm

Main Library – As you know, the SAT is undergoing a complete overhaul and the high school class most affected by these changes is yours, the class of 2017. Rising juniors can choose to take the current SAT, the re-designed SAT, or the ACT. Although it may not seem like it, there is a way to navigate this maze of information and avoid buying into the rumors surrounding the redesign. This session will concisely outline the major changes being made to the SAT, compare both SAT exams to the ACT, and will show you what you need to do to decide which exam is appropriate for you. It will also include critical updates on how the new SAT rollout will help you stay informed as these changes are implemented.   The seminar will be presented by Rhiannon Schade, Director of Collegewise of Millburn. Reservations are recommended. You can reserve seats at: https://thistestthattest.eventbrite.com
