Ahead of the curve
Huntington Learning Center has a 45 year proven track record of preparing students for the SAT. Over the decades standardized exams have changed; and, Huntington has, and continues to be, ahead of the curve. Our individualized test prep programs continue to help students reach their goals even with test changes.
Huntington was ready when the SAT and ACT updated both tests in 2015 and 2016, respectively. As a result, Huntington students who graduated high school in 2019 on average realized score increases of 229 points and over $71K in scholarship awards per student. Now, with the most recent College Board announcement, Huntington continues to enhance its test prep programs that already included Huntington Online Prep, a digital platform, with even more digital instruction that will reflect the new SAT exam.
What's changing?
The newest version of the SAT is of particular importance for students who are a part of the graduating class of 2025; some of whom have already started to prepare with practice tests in the traditional format. Now students need to shift to the new, digital format for future test dates.
Huntington continues to innovate college readiness programs as we transform our individualized instruction to complement digital learning and test environments, and provide students with the best possible for exams. We will continue to teach students the necessary skills to build confidence and motivation for the SAT and success in college and beyond.
What's next?
As the changes go into effect, Huntington will provide updated test prep guidance and resources for students, families, teachers, counselors, and school administrators. Huntington will also host free webinars and utilize the Huntington Learning Center website to keep everyone informed throughout the school year.
Huntington looks forward to continuing to fulfill our mission to give every student the best education possible.
