College Corner 
The SAT is getting a makeover!  Last week the College Board announced that work will begin to revise the SAT I.  It is speculated that the motivation behind the changes is competitive in nature, keeping up with the rising popularity of the ACT in traditionally SAT favored regions of the country.
 
All Rivermont juniors are required to take both the SAT I and the ACT, thereby positioning them to apply to the widest variety of colleges and universities.
