At ACT Prep Chicago, we are ready to help you succeed in your upcoming aptitude exams. We conduct 1-on-1 tutoring and classes for students who are about to take their American College Tests (ACTs) and Scholastic Assessment Tests (SATs).
Our small classes enable students to learn in an active, small class environment where skills and strategies are thoroughly reviewed.
This program is the most effective option, as it allows tutors to target the specific learning weaknesses of a student.
We provide practice exams where students can test their skills. In addition, we offer score reports that detail their strengths and weaknesses in each subject.
Success Rates
From our July 2018 to June 2019 cycle of classes, we found that of the students who enrolled in one of them (consisting of 14 classes) and took more than one practice test with us, 69% of those who took the SAT and 73% of those who took the ACT improved their scores!
The average improvement was 75 composite points on the SAT and 2 composite points on the ACT. The highest improvement was 210 composite points on the SAT and 5 composite points on the ACT.
*These statistics are the result of administering practice ACT and SAT exams.
One-on-one statistics are not as readily available because some of our one-on-one tutors work independently.
