Difficulty: Easy

Instructions

Things You'll Need:

• Stress Relief Products
• SAT Softwares
• Dictionaries
• High-energy Snacks
• College Guides
• SAT Study Guides
• Academic Counselings
• College Catalogs
• Index Cards
• Calculators
• Pencils

1. Contact your school guidance counselor early in your junior year of high school. The counselor will have all the information you need regarding when, where and how to take the Scholastic Aptitude Test (SAT).

2. Decide which tests you will take when. Contrary to popular belief, you do not have to take both the verbal and math portions of the test at the same time. There may be good reasons to take just one.

3. Read the application forms carefully. Pay close attention to deadlines, and sign up early; popular locations fill up quickly.

4. Think carefully about which colleges, if any, you want your scores forwarded to. The organization that administers the test offers to send test scores to up to three schools of your choice at no additional charge. However, until you know if you are satisfied with your scores, you may prefer to wait and have them sent later, even if you have to pay a small fee for the service.

5. Call to make sure that your paperwork was received if you do not receive a confirmation letter within four to six weeks.
