Sophomore year is the ideal time to start preparing for the standardized tests because junior year is often more rigorous academically. Additionally, since the PSAT taken during the junior fall is for the National Merit Scholarships, it is worthwhile to invest the effort as early as possible.
While some students may benefit from the rigid structure of a commercial test prep course, many find the classroom experience both impersonal and inattentive to their needs. Whether preparing for the SAT Reasoning Test, the SAT Subject Tests, or the PSAT, clients prefer the one-on-one test prep strategy as more effective and much more efficient -- Ms. Fung will answer your questions every time.
Helpful hint: Register early for the exams to ensure your best choice of test center location.
