Baltimore SAT Tutoring FAQ
The SAT, once known as the Scholastic Aptitude Test, is a standardized test. It helps colleges and universities in the US evaluate the mathematical and verbal skills of applicants. This test is generally taken during junior and/or senior year. Most of the higher learning institutions in America use the SAT to help determine eligibility. A low SAT score may be the deciding factor in you being denied acceptance into the college of your choice. Over 1.6 million students take this exam annually, with many competing for spots in the nation's top schools. If you're not confident about taking this exam, a tutor could help. Varsity Tutors can help you locate an independent tutor in Baltimore experienced in helping students prepare for the SAT.
An SAT tutor will be sure to touch on Evidence-Based Reading and Writing, as well as Math, which are both sections found on the test. There's also an optional essay question. However, there are some universities and colleges that require that your essay question be attached with your final test score. Your tutor understands that and will be sure to try to help you grasp what administrators are looking for in SAT essays, so you can get it right the first time. You'll learn in a positive learning environment, with a tutor matched to meet your specific needs. This tutor will continuously evaluate your progress and downfalls and customize a tutoring plan to try to help you improve overall. At Varsity Tutors, we can help you find a professional tutor in Baltimore, MD, to try to help you build upon your strengths and eliminate your weaknesses in the sections of the SAT.

This could help to increase your knowledge of core topics, ultimately improving your SAT score.
