Juniors: ACT This Saturday!

Many juniors will be taking the ACT this Saturday, April 18. Remind them that unlike the SAT, there is no penalty for a wrong answer (just a zero) so they should bubble an answer to EVERY question, even if they have to guess on numerous questions. Good luck, juniors!

SAT/ACT Checklist:
·      Admission Ticket (printout)
·      Two # 2 pencils (wooden, not mechanical) and a soft eraser
·      Photo ID, such as school ID, driver’s license or passport
