SUMMARY:ACT/SAT Mock Exams and Debriefs
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a 4-hour exam\, exam marking (including customized essay marking)\, and a 3-hour debrief. Each student is given a cover sheet to help them understand their successes and identify their areas needing improvement. In order to get an accurate estimate of a student’s abilities\, we use only officially released ACT and SAT exams. Taking practice tests helps students prepare for the stamina required on test day. \nWe recommend EVERYONE (even those who have completed a PSAT) take a practice exam for the ACT and/or SAT.
