SAT Course - $399

Parents and High-School Students:

 

Congratulations on your decision to prepare for the SAT!  The Sherwood Test Prep SAT Course will help you with one of the most important aspects of your college application, and will prepare you to do your very best.

Our SAT course is designed as a 18 hour, 6 week class, meeting 3 hours once per week.  Our courses are conveniently held on Sunday afternoons from 4pm to 7pm.  On your first day of class you will be provided with all of the materials necessary to prepare for the SAT.

 

We have six preparation schedules corresponding to the January, March, May, June, October/November, and December SAT Administrations.  In addition, we offer a summer prep course that is very popular with students who wish to prepare for the exam outside of the commitments of the regular school year.  Everything is included with the course.  This is a comprehensive course that demands your effort and excellence.

 

Our course start dates and times are the same throughout the nation.  Our next class begins Sunday, August 31st.  This class prepares for the October 4th and November 1st Examination Dates.

 

Note:  Because of scheduling differences between our schedule and the test maker's, this class is a 5 Week Course that will directly line up with and end the week before the October 4th Exam Date.  This class is exactly the same as our 6 Week Course except condensed to 5 Weeks.  We compensate by adding an extra half-hour of class time to each week.

You can be assured that your child will receive the best help available to improve their SAT score -- thus increasing admissions chances to top universities/colleges.  We are committed to each student's success!
