For many Auburn students, school doesn't stop after they complete their undergrad. More students are applying to graduate school than ever before even though it's extremely competitive and difficult to get in to.

However, there are actually ways to prepare for graduate school entry exams. And a lot of them are free.

Kaplan is a company that is devoted to helping students raise their test scores and get accepted into the graduate school of their choice.

Whether you need to prepare for the LSAT or the PCAT, Kaplan offers the tools to succeed. Kaplan offers free practice tests and courses to help better test scores.

"Many students get overwhelmed when they first take their graduate school admission test and taking a practice test definitely helps prepare them for when they take the real thing," says Jessica Simpson, the associate relationship manager.

Kaplan has currently been on the Plains the past few weeks informing students of all the services that they provide. They have free practice tests held on campus every semester to give students the opportunity to experience exactly what taking the real test is like. Practice tests on campus this semester will be held on Oct. 17.

"We're really hoping for a big turn out of students for the practice test in October," says Simpson.

Taking a practice test also has financial benefits. With the MCAT costing around $230 and the GRE costing around $280, they're not tests you want to take twice. Taking a practice test before is definitely a financially wise decision.

Many students stress out about getting into graduate school and Kaplan is a definite way to ensure that you are doing everything possible to get accepted into the school of your choice.

While most students wait until senior year to worry about graduate school, it's never too early to start.

"There have been freshman and sophomores who take our courses and dramatically change their practice tests scores," Simpson says. "It's never too early to start thinking about graduate school."
