Join us for November’s virtual Lunch & Learn as Alex Chip, Founder of Top Score Education, discusses the current state of the SAT, ACT, and the college admissions testing landscape.

The following topics (and more) will be covered and a Q & A will follow the presentation.

• Testing Accommodations – What testing accommodations exist? How can you support your client or child in obtaining accommodations they are eligible for?

• ACT vs. SAT Differences – Alex will discuss key differences between the SAT and the ACT and provide guidance to Lunch & Learn participants on how students with (and without) learning differences can select the best test option for them.

• Timeline & Best Practices – Alex will review timelines and best practices for preparing for the SAT & ACT. Specific guidance on how neurodiverse students can maximize their preparation for these critical tests will be shared.

• Digital SAT – The SAT is going 100% digital in 2024! This is a significant change. Alex will review what is known about this change and how it impacts the Class of 2025 and beyond.

• Test Blind and Test Optional – Updates on the state of test blind and test-optional policies will be provided, and Alex will speak to the strategies of determining who should and should not submit test scores when applying to college.
