SAT Prep Overview

The SAT is the most important test in a high school student’s career. It is the “X-factor” in determining an applicant’s admission to most institutions of higher learning. The exam covers critical reading, mathematics, and writing. Colleges and universities use this aptitude test-score as a means of evaluating an applicants’ ability to succeed at the university-level. While practice and independent study are critical to success, Parliament's SAT Prep curriculum uses custom-designed practice tests and diagnostic software to pinpoint students' strengths and weaknesses. Each Parliament SAT Tutor is equipped to respond to this diagnosis.
