A good SAT or ACT score could prove the difference when high students begin applying to their universities and colleges of choice. And while not everyone has the time or luxury to take preparatory classes, there are always practice SAT, ACT and PSAT tests being offered, such as the ones arranged by a collaboration between the Clark Orchestra Booster Club and the Princeton Review in January.

The test is being held at Clark High School on Saturday, January 28 at 9:00 a.m. Any students interested in partaking in one of the tests will need to sign up by Friday, January 20. The registration fee is $10 and must be paid with cash to Ms. Reeta Shah. Walk-ins on January 28 will be turned away.

On testing day, students are expected to arrive 30 minutes early and have two #2 pencils, a soft eraser, a scientific or graphing calculator and a water bottle. Test results will be given out on Thursday, Februrary 23 in the Clark cafeteria from 6:30 - 8:00 p.m. There will also be a strategy session on February 23 to help students further prepare.
