Seniors: TSI Testing
TSI Test will be given on Wednesday, March 1. Since that Wednesday will be a late start day for seniors, we will begin the TSI at 11:00am in Room 151. If you would like to participate in the TSI, use the following link to sign up: https://forms.gle/x7B74gmaVeXUjdKD9
After you sign up, you will receive an email with a list of links that you can use to help you practice for the TSI. The deadline to sign up is Friday, February 24. Cost to take the TSI is $10 for both Reading and Math or $5 for one of the tests. Payment is due on the day of testing.
Sign Up for the SAT or ACT?
Most colleges require either the SAT or ACT and express no preference for either test. That said, significant percentages of students at selective colleges are submitting scores from both tests when they apply. Preparing for two major standardized tests may sound daunting, but there are some very good reasons to take both the SAT and ACT, and it's easier (and more affordable!) than ever before to prep for both tests (princetonreview.com)
