While SAT math scores have been climbing, College Board officials have just announced that the Class of 2007 has posted lower math scores than the previous class. The average score in mathematics was 494, showing a 3 point decline from the Class of 2006. This represents a .60 percent decline. While experts debate over the reasons for this decline, one thing many experts are agreeing upon is that test preparation is an asset to achieving higher scores. As little as ten years ago test preparation was both an expensive and debatable proposition for students and their families. Prep courses were not widely available and the full impact of prep courses on test scores was not fully evident. Did SAT prep courses really help? Faced with $1000 investments in courses that were cumbersome and hard to find, students and their parents were faced with a dilemma. Today, SAT prep courses available on line are both affordable and more attuned to successful test taking strategies. The Christian Science Monitor has recently reported that, “Even the College Board, which once declared that test coaching couldn’t help students, is offering its own test prep services.” It is obvious that experts are now coming to the conclusion that adequate test preparation is the key to higher scores.
