1 Pay it Forward Program School and District Information

2 The First Free Interactive Online SAT Test Prep Program Help your students increase their SAT scores and enhance your school s SAT preparation offerings in cooperation with B Line Test Prep Our interactive Web-based SAT courses, created by industry professionals, are absolutely free for schools and students Key Course Features for Students: Eight full-length timed practice tests give students all the preparation they need to sit for the real SAT Individual accounts let each student move at his or her own pace Instant feedback on quizzes helps them identify and fix mistakes right away Animated, narrated feedback helps students absorb concepts they may have missed the first time around Students can see and hear exactly how to arrive at the correct answer step by step Review sections with instant feedback after every question let students identify areas of weakness early on, without having to sit through an entire test vocabulary words and definitions with our vocabulary review tool Remembers where they left off so students can pause and resume as their schedules permit, without missing a beat Article library written by industry professionals to share test-taking strategies, college admission guidelines, loan tips, scholarship information and more to help students succeed Our Technology: B Line Test Prep s courses do not require special software, licensing fees or fees of any kind Students and teachers can access their accounts anywhere they have Internet access, including school, home or the library All course material is Web-based and requires only a normal Web browser and a set of speakers or headphones

3 School Benefits: Interact with your students: After we create your school s FREE and personalized course, your students have the ability to communicate and participate in course-based discussions with other students, counselors or instructors in the program Track student progress: Easily sign up and manage an unlimited number of students Assign an instructor or counselor that can access testing scores and records to chart overall progress Our technology: Our online courses do not require any special sofware, licensing fees or fees of any kind from schools All course material is Web-based and requires only a normal web browser and a set of speakers or headphones

4 B Line Test Prep s courses were designed to address some common issues that today s schools face in preparing students for the SAT, such as: Problem It takes hours to administer just one practice timed SAT test to students -- not to mention the many hours of teachers time it requires to grade those tests Your school s schedule may not even be able to accommodate a long enough block of time Our Solution B Line Test Prep gives every student the opportunity to take up to eight timed practice tests -- with instant scores shown at the end -- as his or her schedule permits, whether at home or at school It s impossible for any teacher to provide each student with hours of one-on-one instruction If a student doesn t ask for help right away when they struggle with a concept, he or she can quickly fall behind Students get instant video and audio feedback after every question in B-Line s review segments, helping them to recognize and remedy errors quickly Students learn at different speeds In a mixed group, a slow learner doesn t always get the time he or she needs to fully absorb the material, while a faster learner may get bored and start to tune out It s hard for a teacher to keep track of each student s strengths and weaknesses, and to know how much SAT preparation each student has completed so far Each student can move at his or her own pace in B-Line s online SAT prep course A student can replay a section as many times as necessary when he/she feels stuck, or breeze through mastered material B-Line provides teachers with tracking tool so they can see in real-time what content each student has completed, along with each student s review quiz and practice timed test scores Teachers can spend the time they saved manually grading SAT prep materials to reach out to students who appear to be struggling

5 wwwblinetestprepcom Problem Some schools lack the time and/or funding to provide much of any SAT preparation to their students There aren t enough SAT prep books or software licenses for every student to have his or her own Shy or introverted students risk being left behind during group SAT classes because they don t feel comfortable asking for help in front of their peers Students don t always know how prepared they are to take the SAT until they actually sit down to take the real test Our Solution Since B-Line s courses are free and accessible from any computer with Internet access, every school can now connect students with professionally-produced SAT preparation written by some of the nation s top tutors Every student gets his or her own account with B Line Test Prep, so there s never any sharing or waiting Our materials are always free, whether you have 100 students or 1,000 By using B-Line s online test prep, shy students can avoid embarrassment when asking questions in class or with a tutor by studying online on their own terms They can master concepts on their own time, replaying content and practicing as often as they need In addition to the audio and video feedback provided after every question in review courses, students can watch their improvement through the built-in score and progress tracking tools, helping them know exactly where they stand and building confidence Connect Your School Contact us today at edupartners@blinetestprepcom to set your school up with a B Line Test Prep account today
