Below are two events sponsored by the non-profit YMCA-PG&E Teen Center.

 

For those of you not taking the real SAT test on Saturday, here is your
opportunity to take a free practice test that doesn't go on your college
record: 

 

Mock SAT Test

Saturday, March 10

9:00am-1:00pm

Registration: http://hlpmocksat.eventbrite.com 

Practice makes perfect, and that certainly applies to studying for the SAT's
or ACT's.  Come take a free practice SAT test in a real testing environment.
The experience of taking the test itself is a huge part of preparing for the
real test.  Plus, the result will give you a good indicator of how much
studying you will need to get the score you want for the college you wish to
attend.

Study Skills Development Series: Learning Styles, Habits of Successful
Students, and Note-Taking

Tuesdays, March 13-27

6:30pm-7:30pm

Being a student requires more than just doing your homework every night.
Why read a book on how to improve your study habits when you can join a
workshop to learn and interact with other people?  This first series of the
Study Skills Seminars will cover different techniques and systems to add to
your options in becoming a well-rounded student.  Figure out what works best
for you to achieve academic success.

 

Each seminar will have a cost of $10 per family, with financial assistance
available.  No families will be turned away.  Additionally, families can
purchase the series of three seminars for $25.  Contact Audi Huang at 510
542 2124 or at ahuang at ymca-cba.org for more information, financial
assistance inquiries, and to register for the Study Skills Development
Series.
