Over the past decade, the number of students taking AP exams has nearly doubled. Student participation in the Advanced Placement program has increased in every subject across every demographic. Simply put, students are taking more AP exams in an effort to prepare for and gain admission to selective colleges. According to the College Board, “a broader, more diverse group of students has benefited from expanded access to Advanced Placement. In addition, more students than ever before are succeeding on AP Exams…. Since 2003, there has been a 7.9 point increase in the percentage of U.S. public high school graduates scoring a 3 or higher on an AP Exam, with 17 states exceeding the national average for this percentage change.” AP courses not only provide students with a more rigorous curriculum, but they allow students the potential to earn college credits.

Long Island Regents Prep will once again offer AP Review Classes at Farmingdale State College. All AP review courses are developed and taught by experienced NYS-certified teachers. This year’s courses will be held on May 3rd and May 9th. To register for classes, visit our website. For your own reference, below is the 2015 AP Exam Schedule. Good luck!

Last week, hundreds of thousands of students held their breath as the College Board released SAT scores for the March SAT. Many students around the country view the SATs as a make-or-break rite of passage in the college application admission process. Globally, the number of teens taking the SAT exams each year continues to rise, even as fewer U.S. colleges require the SATs for admission. According to FairTest.org, the National Center for Fair and Open Testing, there are currently hundreds of “test-optional” colleges across the United States.

Despite controversies over the SAT, however—including whether it measures affluence or aptitude, whether online classes will render SATs obsolete, or whether SAT review courses are worth the cost—students should still plan on taking the SATs, since the overwhelming majority of U.S. colleges require them for admission.

Students who are interested improving their SAT scores for the May and June test dates should consider registering for a Long Island Regents Prep SAT Crash Course. When it comes to Long Island SAT review courses, there are plenty of options, but our one-day SAT prep classes include a custom SAT review book developed by Ivy League graduates. In addition, all of our SAT instructors are NYS-certified teachers, something no other SAT test prep company can boast. For more information, please contact us or visit http://liregentsprep.com.
