Would a SAT prep class help with ASVAB score?

Hi and welcome to my blog,
I opened this blog to help anyone who is preparing for his SAT.
I remember myself when I started - I was so lost and in such a panic.
Luckily I got this great SAT guide that helped me a lot . So study hard and good luck!
My fiance took the asvab and scored a 32 when he needed a 50 to enlist. We are trying to look for a tutor but have had no luck. I was wondering if a sat prep class teaches similar stuff to the problems on the ASVAB. He needs help on math and english parts of the test. And the asvab study books are not what we are looking for.
Do I need SAT’s to get into the drama schools at NYU and Columbia?

Do I need 2 Peterson’s online classes, one for SAT and one for PSAT?
I already have the Peterson’s online SAT course, but I’ll soon be taking the PSAT. Do I need another online course for the PSAT or is everything that I need to know already on my SAT course?
I work for an online SAT prep company. We launched recently but our product hasn’t taken off. Any ideas?
We’ve had some sales and marketing difficulty. For one, we haven’t figured out the best marketing strategies to drive people to our site. Second, we haven’t been able to convert prospective clients into customers.
That said, I’d like to get some insight from Yahoo Answers! experts on how I can help to drive business.
To let you in on a little more about our company, we offer a video-based online test prep service. We have hundreds of video lessons and explanations to help students with their Math, Critical Reading, and Writing development. Currently, we offer SAT and PSAT courses. Also, from our research, we’ve found that the the target customers are high school parents and students.
Thanks for your help!
HELP! SAT TUTOR PROBLEM :(?
Hey my two sisters had an SAT tutor and now I have them. They are a couple who teaches SAT, but I feel like I am not being prepared! Even though it is one on one, i feel very uncomftorable with them, and I am afraid to ask questions. When I do, I feel like I don’t get a clear response. I really want to take a prep class somewhere else or get a different tutor, but I am afraid my parents wont let me because my two sisters got into good colleges and they had this tutor. What should I do??
How can you not feel ashamed about your personal life?
I am Asian Indian and work with another Asian Indian. She is married and has two children. She has per say "a normal life."
I am divorced and my 16 year old daughter has been living with me for the past year.
My focus is primarily my daughter and her schooling and ACT/ SAT test preparation. I try to help her and be there for her.
I feel ashamed about my personal life and don’t talk to her much. We could be friends and would have some things to talk about like Indian movies, concerts, etc.
I feel bad because her life is more busy and fulfilling than mine. I know this from the few times that I have heard her talk about things that she does on the weekends.
I don’t mean to be rude, but I feel bad sometimes about myself and don’t talk to her.
What can I do not to feel this way?

What courses,SAT scores, GPA and other tests should I take to get into the top Universities?
I want to know what grades I should aim for to get into a top school. It doesn’t have to be Harvard or anything.
I’m going to be a junior next year.And I am signed on for two AP Classes: US History and AP English Comp.
My average is a low 90, but I do have a 95 average in English, a 98 average in Global History, an 97 average in Italian, a 88 average in math(trigonometry) and a 88 average in Chemistry.So far (haven’t gotten final scores yet).
also, do universities look at the whole academic average or just the academics? I go to a Performing Arts School and my music classes are averaged into my grades.
any info would help. Thanks

how to find cell reception, without using a cell phone?
Looking to get new cell phone service and I live out in the country a ways. I want to test how well various services work reception wise at my home and at my work. I don’t want to buy a phone until I know it will work in the places I want to use it. Is there a device that can show cell reception signals for various network frequencies. What I’m looking for would be similar to the wifi detectors you can get for a laptop that show wifi signals without having to use your computer.

ACT v.s. SAT test? Difference? Most important? Harder?
*What are the main differences between the SAT and ACT?
*Which one is more important (I am college-bound)?
*Which is more difficult?
From what I’ve seen while flipping through AP exam prep books, I do like the Barron’s books, so…
*Should I invest in a Barron’s ACT and Barron’s SAT prep book?
*If I should, should I get them with or without CD’s?
I only want to buy them if they’ll really be helpful, as my AP teachers have required their students to purchase some sort of AP test booklet, and I’m taking 4 AP classes at the moment, so I’m trying to save from whatever angle I can, but if they’ll really help me…
Should I go to a Canadian university or American?
I am currently living in Canada.
I have decent grades (91% average in the first term of 11th grade).
Should I work through all the US preparations (SAT’s) or just go to a Canadian school, a much cheaper and easier process?
Is the prestige of American schools really worth the price and effort?
Maybe I should just finish undergraduate studies here in Canada, then transfer to a prestigious institution?
I need to decide on this soon.
Please provide any advice or useful websites or other information sources. Thank you!
