The May SATs are fast approaching, leaving students to their books in preparing for the exam. An opportunity for SAT-preparation offered in partnership with Boston University and Malden High School is offered to Malden High School students.
The free program is called “Let’s Get Ready” and meets the fall and spring term before SATs. The spring program is offered mainly to juniors who qualify for free/reduced lunch and/or first generation college bound students. The fall program is offered to seniors for the December SAT exam.
“Let’s Get Ready” gives students the opportunity to take practice tests and learn tips and techniques for taking the SAT. This program is designed to help students prepare for the upcoming exam and could help students to attain higher scores.
SATs are an important aspect to be reviewed when applying to most colleges and participating in “Let’s Get Ready” might help students to boost their SAT scores. Guidance counselor Caitlin Quinn is in charge of the program. “It is important for Malden High students to take advantage of this free course, because SAT scores are a big component of the college application process,” stated Quinn.
“Let’s Get Ready” runs on Tuesdays and Thursdays at Malden High School from 6:00-9:00 p.m. Students interested in the “Let’s Get Ready” program can apply here, or go to their guidance counselor for more information.
