Advanced Placement Exams and COVID-19

By

Advanced Placement exams are still going to be conducted in school buildings for certain students according to the Massachusetts Department of Elementary and Secondary Education. They have released their plan as to how to issue the AP exams, yet not spread COVID-19 infection. It is up to local schools to make sure the rules are followed.

According to their plan, students and staff will be required to wear face coverings at all times. All students and staff must apply hand sanitizer upon entering the building. Students will be monitored by staff while in the building while still maintaining social distance. Social distancing standards of at least 6 feet will be maintained before, during, and after test administration.

How will they protect students and staff from contracting COVID-19 from the beginning of the AP exams to end?  Check back here as we will list how they plan on achieving this goal.  Their AP testing plan may be a sign of what is to come for everyone once they decide to open up schools again for all students.

Breaking News: In-Person Advanced Placement Testing

By

Advanced Placement exams for 2020 will still be conducted in-person at local schools on a limited basis, despite the COVID-19 pandemic. The option to test at a school will only be made to a restricted number of students. Only those students who do not have adequate access to a computer and internet connectivity at home will be allowed to take an AP exam in a school building. This shocking news is according to a newly released memo from the Massachusetts Department of Elementary and Secondary Education. They published guidance for Advanced Placement testing for school districts.

Check back here as we will post their plan as to exactly how they will be allowing students and staff into school buildings to conduct these tests, while keeping everyone safe from COVID-19.

STUDENTS AGREE: Y3K TUTOR IN YOUR HOME CHANGES LIVES

About 2 weeks ago, I tried out the Y3K Tutor In Your Home tutoring service not knowing anything about the service or its tutors.  I needed a tutor to help me with the math portion of the TEAS nursing exam.  I met with the owner and was absolutely impressed and happy with the service that I received.  He went out of his way to work around my schedule.  He accurately observed my strengths and weaknesses and developed a plan of attack that best suited me and my study habits.  He also was able to breakdown each formula and put it into very simple terms/steps that were easy for me to execute.  After the test, I relayed the good news of my 10 point jump from the previous test result to him and he was really pleased to hear about my success.  I am very content with my experience with my tutor.  I highly recommend and I will be going back any chance I get.

Time Devoted

It’s not the amount of time you devote, but what you devote to the time that counts.

SAT Advantage

By

Although the SAT tests are optional to get in to many colleges, high test scores can be an advantage when applying. Many college admissions specialists recommend high school students take the exams only if they expect to score well. Strong scores on the SAT and ACT exams will help you, but these colleges won’t hold it against you for not taking them.

The owner has been tutoring my kids – now in 10th grade – since they were in elementary school.  The specific needs have varied over the years and Jerry has always been able to adapt his teaching and style to provide what was needed.  He is able to provide support across all the academic subjects – but just as critically – he has helped with organizational skills and planning.  And he has remained even and cool-headed in the face of difficult teenagers, resistant to getting help.  In the face of reactions that would fell the most intact ego, Jerry has maintained his sense of humor.  I can’t recommend Y3K Tutor In Your Home highly enough.
