C2 Education is proud to announce its fifth annual nationwide SAT Challenge. “This is an event that we are always very excited to be able to offer,” says David Kim, co-founder of C2 Education. “It is such a wonderful opportunity for students.”
C2 began offering the SAT Challenge in 2007. Since then, it has grown to include thousands of students across the country. This year, the SAT Challenge will be held on April 2 at 2:30 PM.
During the SAT Challenge, students will sit for a full-length mock SAT exam. “We make sure to administer the tests under conditions that are as close to actual testing conditions as possible,” Mr. Kim says. “This way, students are able to get a more accurate idea of how well they would perform on a College Board SAT.” While students take the SAT, parents are invited to attend a seminar about the college admissions process. Seminar speakers include college admissions specialists and the co-founders of C2 Education. “We hope that parents will embrace the opportunity to learn more about what their children will need to get into the school of their dreams,” Mr. Kim says.
