While most students are eagerly awaiting the arrival of summer break, some students will have one more test to take before they can truly enjoy summer.
Right now is the primetime for college entrance exams. Students spend months, and sometimes, lots of money getting ready.
Thursday morning on KARE 11 First Edition, Valerie Broughton with College Connectors discussed tips for preparing for college entrance exams.
Broughton says preparing is for the ACT and SAT is very important. She says the prep time will take away nerves and fear. Students also get to know the types of questions that will be on the tests.
Broughton says the practice tests are also good because they teach students how to pace themselves so they don't run out of time. It's also a good way to learn strategies for guessing when you don't know the answer.
Students should start prepping for the ACT or the SAT 8-10 weeks before the test, according to Broughton.
