BECS prepares a large number of undergraduate students for the SAT admission test. Our teachers are regularly updated with the course and changing teaching strategies. SAT classes are conducted between 7 AM and 7 PM Monday to Friday. Like other test preparation courses, this course also runs for six weeks.
The New Scholastic Aptitude Test (N-SAT) was introduced in 2005 by College Board Exams. Even though some colleges and universities do not require the N-SAT of international students, this test scores are highly considered for the assessment of undergraduate scholarship applications in American schools. The test dates for this test are published in advance in the information bulletin available at the United States Education Foundation (USEF) at Gyaneshwor, Kathmandu. For more students regarding N-SAT, students can visit the website of College Entrance Examination Board: www.collegeboard.com
