Kaplan Test Prep-Free Practice Materials

Hello!

My name is Breena Cocco and I am one of the Student Brand Ambassadors for Kaplan Test Prep. Kaplan has just launched Practice with Purpose, and I have copied the details below. If you could share this with the pre-health listerv, that would be amazing as I think they will appreciate the free test prep for the GRE, MCAT, DAT, PCAT, and OAT.

Thank you very much!

Sincerely,

Breena Cocco

Practice with a Purpose

Kaplan has partnered with Boys and Girls Club of America to bring students new free practice exercises designed to fit into your busy schedules. Whether you have 5 minutes for a pop quiz, 20 minutes for a workout, or a free afternoon for a full-length, proctored practice test, we have you covered.

Not only will students receive Kaplan practice and resources, but for each student who signs up for one of our free practice exercises, we’ll donate to the Boys and Girls Club of America with a goal of donating 100 scholarships, valued up to $125,000, for students in need. It's a win win!
