Students will be provided a lesson plan and can work through lessons at their own pace if that is their preference.

Each session covers different topics that students will need to master for the test. Students must commit to the full four-week session and begin on the first day of each. Pre-registration is required, drop-ins are not accepted into the class after the first day of class. See calendar here.
