It's almost over. Summer, I mean. But that does not mean you missed your opportunity to get a jump on the college application process. EA applications are not due until November 1 and regular decision isn't due until January 1. Before your senior year gets too crazy, start your common app and essay today. Remember, if you are a junior, standardized tests are making a comeback. Look at your schedule of activities (sports, drama, clubs) and decide when you can squeeze in a six-week prep for the SAT or a five-week prep for the ACT. Junior year is also a great time to start visiting colleges. If you need assistance creating a list, the counselor at EA would be more than happy to help. #college #collegeapp #CollegeBound

My name is Sam McLaughlin, Founder of the new college website: collegeconnectiongroup.com. For the last 20+ years, I have worked as an Expert Test Prep Tutor. And, during that time, I have seen first-hand the deleterious effects that test anxiety has had in lowering my students’ test scores on the new DSAT (Digital SAT) and the Paper ACT -on average, by as much as 25%. 😰 In order to help reduce my private students’ test anxiety, I have developed a comprehensive tutoring program built around continually exposing my students to the rigors of these exams, through exposing my students to lengthy DSAT/ACT materials I have crafted as well as bringing my students to my Midtown Manhattan office for the purpose of taking three actual, prior, recent DSAT/ACT exams prior to each of their scheduled DSAT/ACT exams. In this way, my private students not only acquire the knowledge they will need to ultimately prosper on their chosen standardized exam, but they also gain confidence in their abilities through continuous exposure to the rigors of these exams.🌿 To learn more about my Expert DSAT/ACT Tutoring Services, contact me at: Sam@collegeconnectiongroup.com In summary, staying calm and focused during the test will help reduce test anxiety, which will ultimately allow my private students to enhance their DSAT/ACT scores. 🧘♀️ #TestAnxiety #MentalHealth #AcademicSuccess

What not to include in the Additional Info Section: 1) No repeats: Don’t copy-paste your personal statement! Admissions officers already read it—keep it fresh. 2) Skip unnecessary achievements: No need to re-list clubs or awards that are already in your activities section. Keep it clean! 3) Avoid excess info: No long stories or random details just to fill space. Remember, less is more! It’s optional, and leaving it blank is totally fine. Focus on quality, not quantity!

A New Era for the SAT: Reflections from an International Counselor Spring 2023 marked a significant milestone in standardized testing: the SAT went fully online overseas. As an international high school counselor and SAT Coordinator at the time, I navigated this transition firsthand. Our initial foray into the online format was fraught with challenges, from troubleshooting connection issues over Skype to assisting students unable to access the Bluebook app. Yet, by the next test date, we largely overcame these hurdles, embracing the change fully. The College Board's decision to transition the SAT online, following the ACT's lead, was a strategic move long in the making. This shift has primarily addressed a perennial issue: test security. Throughout my 15 years working overseas, I've witnessed the ramifications of security breaches, from leaked tests to theft, leading to canceled SAT scores and many very upset students and parents. However, moving the SAT online has brought more than just enhanced security. It has streamlined the testing process, shortened the test duration, and expanded access through initiatives like SAT School Days, allowing eligible students to take the test at no cost. Moreover, the online format arguably caters to today's digitally savvy students, providing a more comfortable and familiar testing environment. The reactions to the SAT going online is mixed, but it's clear that the transition to online testing represents a significant step making the SAT more secure, accessible, and student-friendly. https://lnkd.in/g59Gv3sn #Education #SAT #OnlineLearning #TestPreparation #CollegeCounseling
