FREE SAT PREP!

NYC CRC's offer FREE SATPREP for students 17 and under!
It's so simple. All you have to do is sign-up for a FREE membership to a recreation center, go into the computer room and tell the coordinator that you want to do SAT prep. They can set you up with a computer program that tells you where you stand and then walks you through each section of the test. It’s a good way to get those numbers up and you don’t have to pay Kaplan!
