About The Author  
Carol Fertig

Carol Fertig

I have been active in the education community for more than 40 years and involved in gifted education for more than 20 years. At various times, I have been a classroom teacher, gifted education teacher, consultant, writer, editor—you name it. I live in Colorado, but also spend a fair amount of time in Chicago. I have two grown boys: one in Colorado and one in California. In my spare time, I enjoy skiing, mountain biking, and golfing. I also like to read, go to plays, and watch foreign movies. Feel free to send me an e-mail.

I am also the author of Raising a Gifted Child: A Parenting Success Handbook. This book offers a large menu of strategies, resources, organizations, tips, and suggestions for parents to find optimal learning opportunities for their gifted kids, covering the gamut of talent areas, including academics, the arts, technology, creativity, music, and thinking skills.

March 2 Success: A Free Online SAT and ACT Prep Course

Saturday, November 11, 2006 - by JMcIntosh - Category: General Education
Sandra Berger, the author of College Planning for Gifted Students: Choosing and Getting Into the Right College sent me an e-mail this week to let me know about a free SAT and ACT test preparation site. She felt the readers of my blog would find it valuable, and I agree.

The site, March 2 Success, is sponsored by the U.S. Army; however, the resources available are "no-strings attached" (i.e., a recruiter will not contact users of the site useless a user explicitly asks them to do so) and are free. Given the site's quality and that the content was developed by Kaplan, a similar course would cost between $500-$700.

According to the site, March 2 Success "is a free, web-based program that makes high quality, test preparation instruction available to all. Designed by Kaplan and Educational Options and sponsored by the US Army, it is more inclusive than traditional college entrance test preparatory courses."

To see a demo of the site's features, visit the March 2 Success demo page.
