Kaplan Test Prep Free SAT and ACT Practice Test!!

Kaplan Test Prep Holds Free SAT and ACT Practice Test Events for College Applicants on Saturday November 16.

It's that time of year when questions like "What's on the SAT?", "What's on the ACT?", "Should I take both?", "How important are these exams in the college admissions process?" can preoccupy the minds of students and parents alike. To demystify it all, Kaplan Test Prep will hold its free National Practice Test Day on Saturday, November 16 at locations all around the country and live online.

Here's how it works: Students will take both an SAT and ACT practice test, which helps to familiarize them with the content. After taking the free practice tests, each participant will receive a personalized detailed performance analysis. This will give the student an idea of which test they should prepare for and take- though many students ultimately decide to sit for both exams.

According to Kaplan Test Prep's 2013 survey of college admissions officers, nearly 90% of schools across the country require a student to submit a score from either the SAT or ACT. And doing well on the exams can help college applicants secure strong merit-based financial aid packages.

To attend the event please visit a www.kaptest.com/choose to register today! Or to learn more about the college admissions process in general, you can go to www.kaptest.com/college.
