In the meantime, you should know that ePrep is currently offering a PSAT course at no cost and an SAT course that is relatively inexpensive. Both courses are, in my opinion, better than anything that is currently on the market. I agree that the college board should stay out of the business of test preparation. Maria,

I just don't have the resources to pay for such things. So, I'm hoping to find online resources that are either free or relatively inexpensive. I've found number2.com, mysatpractice.com, and the collegeboard.com has some resources as well (albeit I think it's inappropriate for the college board to provide a pay services (isn't that a conflict of interest?). It would be great if somebody were to create a list of online resources. I definitely agree that personal one-on-one tutoring is too expensive. I just don’t have the resources to pay for such things.

It has a nice feature that enables parents to receive their children's test results via e-mail.

While it may not seem fair to make them take the SAT, English is the primary language used in most American universities. That being said, my future plans for ePrep do include accommodating students who do not speak Engish as a first language. Thank you for your comment. I wish you and your daughter all the best in the future. I have thought often about non-native English speakers who have to take the SAT.

She never took an Pretest of the SAT. And let me say this students here; english is there seconda language.I'm just bringing this issue to you so that you may think about it. It is also hard for english speaking students if the SAT is not an english test but in other foreign language. They have to really concentarte real hard and need more time to study for the test. I'm just bringing this up to you for your indormation and some changes especially for the foreign students. thank you mpfuallau My daughter will attend the 12th grade in the Leone Hgh School here in American Samoa.
