SAT: August 27, October 1, November 5 and December 3

College-bound juniors should plan to take two tests, an SAT and an ACT during the second semester of 11^th grade.

Students may need to test in the early months of the second semester in order to allow for scores to be returned in a timely fashion.  This way they may make an informed decision regarding future standardized tests.

Students may want to sit for additional standardized tests either late in the junior year or early in the senior year so they may further improve their scores.

The Counseling Department bases its recommendations upon the individual testing needs of each student.
