The Wired Classroom

Many of you know CSD offers a great ACT Prep Course over videoconference. We’re pleased to announce that we now will offer a PSAT Prep with The Princeton Review. The PSAT is great practice for the SAT - (keep in mind, the PSAT is a shorter test and has no essay or Algebra II). The actual PSAT is 2 hours & 10 minutes and includes math, critical reading, and writing questions. Who takes the PSAT, and why? The PSAT is most popular among juniors, but some take it as a sophomore.

In this six hour videoconference course, The Princeton Review instructor shows students how to ace the PSAT & great tips for SAT. A high score on the PSAT is the only way to qualify for a National Merit Scholarship. PSAT videoconference course package includes:

• 2 PSAT full-length practice tests
  - to be taken onsite at participating schools -
• 6 hours of classroom time over videoconference

Something to note: public Missouri high school students who completed The Princeton Review PSAT Clinic averaged of 12.1 pts higher on the PSAT, and the top 50% of student scoring 21.6  points higher, which is equivalent to an SAT scaled score increase of 216 points.
