The DHS Library Media Center subscribes to the Peterson's Test Prep database from Gale (link below). This database contains practice tests for the PSAT, SAT, ACT, & AP tests. Students will need to login using the Gale password, and then they will be prompted to create their own account. Once a student has created their account, they can then access the practice tests & even self-paced guided study. Please stop by the Library Media Center for the password. (Hint: It's a Gale database, so it uses the Gale password!)
