SAT Mock Test

A SAT mock test will be administered on Saturday, November 21, 2009 at 8:00 a.m. at Wilde Lake High School. The fee for the mock test will be $10 (cash). Please return the registration form and pay the testing fee to Mr. Rose in room 238 by Friday, November 13, 2009. Students who are registering outside of Wilde Lake should report by 7:30 a.m. to register the day of the test. There will be no refunds for those students who miss the test. The test is open to the first 100 students who register.

Wilde Lake High School in conjunction with Studyworks (SAT PREP source) has established the SAT mock test in an effort to prepare students for the SAT. Studies show that students do better the second time they take the SAT. It is our goal to let the mock test represent the first time. A representative from Studyworks will give a presentation and provide each student with a written analysis on a date to be determined.

On the day of the test, students who are pre-registered should report to Main Street (Front lobby Wilde Lake High) by 7:45a.m.; students who are not registered should report by 7:30 a.m. All students should bring two #2 pencils, a calculator, and a snack. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact Mr. Rose at (410) 313-6965 or by email: erose@hcpss.org.

To register please email the following information to Mr. Rose to reserve your spot:
     Name
     Grade
     Phone Number
     Current Math Class
