Navigating College Admission Testing: An Event for New Trier Families
|
7:00pm-8:00pm |
Aud - NFD - Cornog Auditorium (E201)
|
|
Interested in learning usable information about standardized testing and college admissions? The Class of 2025 is experiencing the biggest change to the SAT in a century with the digital, adaptive PSAT and SAT. The introduction of a digital assessment comes at a poignant time in today's admission context, where colleges are actively interrogating the value of standardized testing in students' applications. And while many schools have retained softened testing policies in the wake of the pandemic, admission offices demonstrate varying preferences for test scores. Hear from the experts at Compass Education Group as they lead a pragmatic discussion of how to navigate these changes. Presentation topics will include: the adaptive design of the Digital PSAT & SAT, the value of the Digital PSAT for diagnostic and National Merit purposes, fresh admissions data from test score submitters and non-submitters, making sense of the subtlety and variety of testing policies, the evolving role of AP grades and exam scores, making an informed choice between the ACT and SAT, and how to build a successful prep timeline.
