Woodlands Test Prep congratulates all students who have achieved Semifinalist status in the 2023
National Merit Scholarship Program. All of these students have worked hard to reach the top levels of
the scholarship program. The Company especially congratulates the FOUR students with whom it
has worked with as they prepared for this scholarship competition including Brooke McMullan, Jack
Pittenger, David Udoh, and Emily Valerio.
Semifinalists will go on to compete for Finalist standing, and
from there, become National Merit Scholars. Woodlands Test Prep wishes these students all the best
as they continue on in the competition.


The National Merit Scholarship Program honors individual students who show exceptional academic
ability and potential for success in rigorous college studies.

Woodlands Test Prep will hold an informational meeting on Wednesday, October 5th at 6pm, both in-
person and by Zoom, for students and their families who would like to learn more about the “Road to Becoming a National Merit Scholar.” Join us at our office or on our Zoom link!

Taking the SAT can be a real challenge. Trying to get a top score on the SAT is an even bigger challenge. Students aiming for these near-perfect scores have unique needs.

Our Goal 1600 class is specifically designed for students aiming for National Merit Semifinalist and top percentile SAT scores. This class goes quickly through the regular content and focuses then on strategy and practice for the hard questions. In order to help ensure students are in a class that best suits them, students must meet a minimum SAT score (or equivalent PSAT score) of 1300 to be admitted to the class.

According to Susan Powers: “Students in Texas are in an extremely competitive arena.  National Merit Semifinalists can only miss one or two questions per section of the test.” This means that error prevention is a main focus of the class, with strategies notably different from basic SAT strategies.  “When creating this class, I focused on what this specific group of students needs because this type of class isn’t available elsewhere in The Woodlands.”
