SAT Prep Classes

SAT Prep Course - In House 2025 - 2026

The SAT has gone digital, and the format has changed considerably. New strategies for
taking the test as well as the material covered and the test expectations are different. Given all
of this, there will be four separate sections offered for the October, December, March and May
exams. The first session will be held on August 4,5,6,7,8, and 11th, while the three six-week
sessions will involve two, one hour and forty five minute classes per week. These are all are
taught by Diane Bassett and Mary Gregoire, previous Math and English Department
Chairpersons. Each class will consist of either a session of English or Math. Classes will involve
help with strategies for students to employ while taking the test as well as subject-specific
knowledge. Teachers will be available after each class to address individual student questions
and concerns.

The course will include sessions with direct teacher instruction and will focus on the
test format, commonly encountered question constructions, helpful test taking strategies and
subject-specific knowledge. Students will be expected to take practice SAT tests on their own,
and some instruction will focus on the problems that students encounter with the exam. The
four different sessions will be offered to accommodate student schedules. The courses are
open to all students entering their 10th, 11th, or 12th grade years.

The book for the course is The Official Digital SAT Study Guide Second Edition. It is a blue
book that specifically states that it is the College Board book with the SAT label on the top left.
This book contains all of the updated information for the test as well as practice sections for
each session and six actual SAT exams as well as how to score them.

Please note that registration for this class does not register you for the SAT exam; rather you
are required to register for the exam separately. Please contact North Andover High School.
