Questioning the Value of SAT Test Prep Courses
6/7/2010
by Bruce Wolanin, Director of College CounselingA recent discussion paper studied the true value of SAT test prep courses. “Research suggests that SAT test prep courses actually do little to boost scores. A NACAC study from 2008 found that test scores increased only 20 to 30 points after a test-prep program.”
“The best way to get ready for the SAT is to do well in school, take challenging courses, study hard, and read as much as possible,” wrote College Board spokeswoman Kathleen Fineout Steinberg, in an email. “There are no ‘tricks’ or ‘shortcuts’ to preparing for the SAT.”
I encourage reading both the National Association for College Admission (NACAC) Discussion Paper and a Christian Science Monitor article for more information on this interesting topic. |
