ACT Tutoring

While historically the ACT was the less popular and prestigious admissions test, it is now accepted by all 4-year colleges and universities in the country.

We know this might be different from what you’ve heard, but in 2022 the ACT is just as highly regarded as the SAT. We have had students with top ACT scores receive acceptances from Ivy League colleges like UPenn, Cornell, and Harvard, as well as colleges like Johns Hopkins, Georgetown, and more.

In order to determine whether the SAT or ACT is a better primary test to focus on, we strongly encourage that every student we work with takes a full-length SAT and ACT diagnostic at the start of his or her program. We offer these proctored mock tests free of charge for our students at our offices in Wayne, PA or at home.

How is the ACT Scored?

The ACT is comprised of four sections—English, Math, Reading, and Science—each out of a maximum score of 36. The four individual section scores are then averaged to create a composite score of 36.

There is an optional 40-minute Writing section that is scored separately from the test’s four main sections. In this section, students are presented with a complex issue and asked to analyze it. We do not recommend that most students take the ACT writing portion.

A Targeted Approach

When your child completes a mock test or practice test sections, our software analyzes their performance to help identify their strengths and weaknesses. Using this data, we prioritize low-hanging fruit and address questions that are most easily recoverable, allowing us to make the most of every minute of the session.

The best ACT tutoring isn’t just about having the best instructors—the curriculum matters too. Our curriculum is 100% sourced from official ACT tests, and unlike a lot of other tutoring companies, we use the most recently released tests available to make sure your child is seeing the most relevant material.
