March 19th ACT Information for Juniors


Subject: March 19th ACT Information for Juniors

 

We are excited at SWHS that all of our 11th grade students will have the opportunity to take the ACT, free of charge on March 19th, 2013.  This email is the first of six that will be sent to students/families, providing information about the ACT exam. 

 

The March exam provides you with significant advantages:

You will have an ACT score to submit with your fall college applications •You may do better than you think and begin to see additional opportunities beyond high school •The test provides you with practice if you choose to re-test in the spring.

You will not have to pre-register for this exam.  It is taken care of by SWHS.

 

The best preparation for scoring well on the ACT is solid school work.  You can be actively doing other activities to help you prepare.

 

These include:

Accessing the “PREP ME”-ACT prep tool found in your Naviance account.

Accessing the ACT website for test preparation sample questions.


Utilizing ACT prep textbooks found in libraries or book stores.

Get organized.  Don’t leave preparation to the last minute.

 

If you have questions, please contact your counselor.  Next email coming February 11th.
