Teenagers often wonder about the role of college admission tests and how to best prepare for them. This presentation will focus on tips and techniques for studying smarter. Matthew Pietrafetta will share updates on the April SAT, which is offered to all Glenbard juniors, and he will bust myths about standardized testing. Participants will learn about the content of the exam, how to prepare and the best strategies to use when taking the test.
Pietrafetta founded Academic Approach in 2001 and serves as the chief executive officer. He has worked to define a model of test preparation based less on strategy and more on skills-development to prepare students for academic success both on the test and beyond.
Pietrafetta will be joined by Ned Johnson, co-author of “The Self-Driven Child” and founder of PrepMatters. Johnson has devoted thousands of hours to one-on-one test prep.
This event will be presented virtually. The link to log in to this webinar from your computer, tablet or phone is: https://glenbard.zoom.us/j/82794673928
