Want help preparing for the SAT?
Hunterdon Central Regional High School offers an SAT prep course!
The Hunterdon Central SAT Prep course is specially designed to help students begin to prepare for their target test date. The College Board recommends that juniors take the test once during their junior year and once during the Fall semester of their senior year. Students may take the test a third time, and scores may be super scored.
Hunterdon Central’s Fall SAT Prep course, beginning on September 7th, is offered to juniors and seniors, on a first come, first served basis as the class is limited to 25 students.
The prep course is offered on the HCRHS campus and is instructed by HCRHS teachers for students who would like a structured preparation program in a familiar environment with tools and materials unique to Hunterdon Central. The course consists of 11 instructional classes (eight Saturday 3-hour classes 9:00a.m.-noon, three Wednesday 2-hour classes 3:00-5:00p.m.) plus two additional Saturdays for pre- and post-testing (9:00a.m. - Noon). Click here for full schedule. Cost for the full course is $350.
Instructors for both the English and Math sections will use the College Board Official SAT Study Guide to prepare students for the Evidence-Based Reading and Writing and Math test sections of the SATs. Instructors will also help students prepare for the digital format as the SAT test is now taken completely online.
English SAT Prep also includes 1) analysis of diagnostic performances to build the students' understanding of which areas need improvement, 2) direct instruction on and application of specific skills and content, and 3) practice on test-taking strategies as well as the SAT's content domains: Information & Ideas, Expression of Ideas, Craft & Structure, and Standard English Conventions.
Math SAT Prep also includes identifying specific strengths and weaknesses and using targeted practice sets to improve outcomes in the following areas: (1) Numbers and Operations, (2) Algebra and Functions, (3) Geometry and Measurements, and (4) Data Analysis, Statistics, and Probability.
Improving overall test scores is conditional on the following factors:
1. Attendance and participation in planned classroom activities
2. Completion of individual assignments and review practice
3. Investment of personal study time and preparation work outside of the required course times
