Join the nationally recognized test prep experts from Top Score Education for a comprehensive virtual group SAT class designed exclusively for FSYF members (and individuals eligible for FSYF membership). This class is ideal for all current sophomores and juniors. Seniors who have not taken the SAT or plan to retake the exam are also encouraged to join. 


Structure of Class:

This virtual SAT prep course will consist of 15 90-minute weekly sessions on Saturdays from 9:00 to 10:30 AM EST. The class will begin on January 11, 2025, and run through April 26, 2025, preparing students for two official SAT attempts. 

The class will be capped at 16 students, and early registration is recommended. Registration closes seven days before the start of the first class. This course costs $1,000 for FSYF members and $1,200 for non-members. However, it is only open to individuals eligible for FSYF membership. All materials, resources, and communication with Top Score are included in this cost. 

Learning Objectives

  • Prepare students for two official SAT attempts on March 8, 2025, and May 3, 2025, through a comprehensive review of content, strategies, and mindsets necessary for success on the SAT.

  • Build community among FSYF students around the world. This group class is intentionally open exclusively to FSYF students. An explicit goal of this course is to foster connections between FSYF students worldwide. 

Each family is responsible for registering their students for the official SAT attempts on March 8 and May 3. FSYF and Top Score Education are unable to do this for students. More information about how to register for the SAT is here: https://satsuite.collegeboard.org/sat/dates-deadlines.
