in the Years of COVID and Beyond

College applications, beginning with PSAT testing, is a confusing gauntlet that stresses out high school parents every year. Add in a global pandemic and rapidly changing requirements, and it’s nearly impossible to know what your child truly needs to do–until now. Join our upcoming webinar to hear Ann Dolin, M.Ed. shed light on this confusing process and reveal:
✓ What PSAT scores really mean and how to interpret the data
✓ Navigating the standardized testing process beginning with the PSAT
✓ Why the PSAT is not as predictive as it once was and what scores mean for your child
With clear next steps and updated advice, you’ll feel confident in the best way to support your high schooler throughout this year—and beyond. We can’t wait to see you there!
