Highly recommended by Dean Andreola! Adding nearly 100 pages of new material, this expanded edition of Stobaugh's popular literature- and Scripture-based course gives students plenty of practice in honing reading comprehension, writing essays, solving higher-level math problems, enhancing critical-thinking skills, and developing test-taking techniques---all while grounding them in God's Word. Geared for grade 11 but can be used as early as grade 9. 344 pages, softcover from Great Expectations.

A great course made even better! This new and expanded edition now includes a variety of essay examples and writing exercises, higher-level math problems, and advanced reading selections to enhance critical-thinking skills. Nearly 100 pages of additional material have been added!

The SAT & College Preparation Course for the Christian Student (now geared to the 2005 test standard) is unique in the Christian educational world. It offers diligent students the promise of higher scores on their SATs in an easy-to-follow devotional format. This is not a cram course. It is a slow and steady method of preparation. It strengthens a students' personal faith and loyalty to Christ while building disciplined study skills for college. IN this way, both the intellectual and spiritual muscles of the student are developed.

The literature-based course challenges students to do a lot of reading from the types of books that will be required in college. An annotated book list is included. The student keeps a personal list of new vocabulary gleaned from the literature he reads. He also becomes accustomed to doing the same types of exercises he will face on the SAT, such as critical thinking, essay, and math problems. Practical techniques for test-taking are given throughout the book. The spiritual truths gained within the Bible readings are meant to be a reservoir of strength from which the student can draw not only on the day of the SAY exam, but also throughout his life. This one-year supplemental course if for grade 11 but can be used as early as grade 9 but following the included 2- or 3-year plan. Highly recommended! 344 pages, softcover from Great Expectation.
