"I highly recommend
Peterson's online SAT
course to other school
districts and community-
based organizations. I feel
that the personalized lesson
plans were a helpful feature
because they were specifically
designed for each student."

PETERSON'S ONLINE COURSE FOR THE SAT IS UNIQUE FOR EACH INDIVIDUAL STUDENT--NO TWO STUDENTS
WILL TAKE THE SAME EXACT COURSE.
Students get personalized lessons based on a pretest to give them extra help where they need it and challenge them on their stronger
skills. Also included are three timed, full-length practice tests. Essay-writing prompts and an automatic essay-scoring feature prepare
your students for the SAT essay.
Whether a student is preparing weeks in advance or starting only a few days before the test, full, medium, and short versions of the
course give students the most powerful program in the time they have available.
Fun, interactive activities such as drag and drop matching, educational games, and interactive vocabulary cards encourage students
to complete the course. Kinesthetic learners will benefit just as much as visual learners from this hands-on approach.
Affordable site license pricing is available to high schools and districts.
