Standardized Testing Test Prep Resources

Test Prep Resources

An Ivy League admissions dean once commented, "the SAT is probably not as important as you think it is, but it is probably more important than we say it is." Consequently, many students elect to enroll in test prep courses or hire tutors. For some students, this is the best course of action. Others, however, can prepare adequately on their own, by working through practice tests and reading test prep books, such as those published by Kaplan and the Princeton Review. (10 Real SATs, put out by College Board, is especially helpful.) We also encourage students to take one SAT exam in the junior year before signing up with a tutor or enrolling in a formal preparation class. This will provide the student with a baseline score and reveal what kind of preparation will be most useful.

Lovett students have had positive experiences with the tutors and courses listed below. Ask around with your friends for recommendations, or request references before committing to work with a particular company.
