Are You in the 20 Percent?

Though most students perform nearly identically on both tests, 20% of students see a dramatic difference in their SAT and ACT scores. Our ACT hybrid test prep program benefits these students.

You’ve Already Done the Work

Much of the content on the SAT transfers to the ACT, and vice versa. Use just a few additional sessions and practice tests to see if the other test is a better fit.

Take advantage of your own hard work. With just a few sessions, you could be ready for a new test.

The content tested on the SAT and ACT is almost identical. Most students take both tests, the SAT followed by the ACT, and our SAT/ACT hybrid test prep program is the most efficient and effective way to comprehensively prepare for both exams.

Once students complete our comprehensive SAT tutoring program, we begin a three- or four-session ACT hybrid test prep program. The ACT hybrid course takes the content students mastered in their SAT preparation and teaches them how to apply it on the ACT.

The primary goals of ACT hybrid tutoring are:

  • to learn how to approach the ACT Science section, for which there is no equivalent on the SAT
  • to adjust to the accelerated timing of the ACT
  • to get students comfortable with the geometry and advanced math on the ACT
  • to hone ACT test-taking best practice on full-length proctored practice tests that are reviewed in detail in tutoring sessions

Parents love us.

"AJ Tutoring is very responsive, and they do a very good job in matching the student with the tutor."

Let us help determine which test is the best fit for you!

All four-year colleges accept both the SAT and ACT, and the vast majority of colleges do not have a preference as to which test students should take. Therefore, you should take the test on which you’re likely to perform better.

While it’s often true that students who enjoy puzzles and logic games prefer the SAT and literal thinkers prefer the ACT, it can be hard to predict which test will be a better fit. Let us help you get your highest score on the test that highlights your abilities.
