Selective Exams:  You may want to take exams that are not required for graduation.  The SAT, PSAT, CERT or the ASVAB are just a few.  For the SAT, please go to www.collegeboard.com.  This exam is not offered at Odyssey.  The PSAT (pre-SAT) is held in the middle of October.  See Mr. Smyth to sign up in the weeks before this.  Also, speak to Mr. Smyth about the ASVAB.  The ASVAB predicts future academic and occupational success in the military.  Go to the CCR/ACT page for more information about the ACT Aspire.
