Plan for your child to take a standardized test at least twice to give them the best chance of a high score.
The next SAT will be on May 4th and then June 1st.
The next ACT will be on June 8th and then July 13th.
Our tutors have been fully trained in the new content and test-taking strategies of both the SAT and ACT tests. We focus on time-management and customize our instruction to meet the needs of each student.

New York State Regents Scholarship?
New York high school seniors who perform well on Regents exams might receive college scholarships from the state. Learn about the scholarship program and find out how winners are chosen. You'll also discover resources to help students prepare for their Regents exams.
Scholarships for Academic Excellence
New York State's Scholarships for Academic Excellence program provides scholarships to high-achieving students at New York high schools that offer Regents credit. Each of these schools receives at least one $1,500 scholarship and one $500 scholarship to award. Larger schools will receive additional scholarships based on the ratio of their 12th grade student population to the number of high school seniors in the entire state.
How to Earn the Scholarship
One of the methods schools use to determine scholarship winners is to look at students' performance on six to eight Regents exams taken before their senior year of high school. Schools apply a state-mandated weight to each exam score, then calculate weighted averages for each test taker.
The
students with the best averages in each school receive scholarships.
