If you’re considering test prep courses for the SATs or graduate school entrance exams, then you’ll find there are plenty of options available. Test prep organizations offer a wealth of courses at rented facilities (e.g., churches, YMCAs), local high schools and colleges, and, perhaps the most convenient of all, on your computer. If you live in the New York metro area, chances are there is a test prep course within five miles of your home or work.
Also, there is no shortage of course schedules available to test-takers in the New York metro area. There are weekend-only courses and night-only courses, which tend to be more popular with working professionals preparing for graduate school entrance exams, and high school students enrolled in SAT courses during the school year. Summer sessions also abound, especially for SAT courses, offering weekday hours as well as nights and weekends.
Courses come in varying lengths and class sizes.
