    How our test prep works

    DETERMINE BASELINE & GOALS
    First we establish your baseline score, either through a prior test or a new practice test. We’ll also discuss your admissions plan and timeline.
    ESTABLISH A PLAN AND START PREPARING
    Next, we’ll create a plan and your tutor will implement it with you. Sessions will occur regularly (with the same tutor) that take the stress out of the prep process while boosting your score.
    MAKE SURE YOU’RE ON TRACK:
    Once every few weeks we will reevaluate your progress and refine the study plan and tutoring to improve weak areas.

    A Typical Test Prep session

    Review
    Your tutor will review any prior “homework” with you, noting any errors so you recognize and avoid them in the future.
    Content
    Your tutor will teach you the academic concepts covered by the exam. These might include math, science, reading comprehension, grammar, writing, etc.
    Strategy
    It’s not enough to just learn content. Successful students understand how to recognize “patterns” in questions and avoid getting tricked.
    Application
    You’ll learn how to combine content and strategy to tackle any question on the exam.
    Practice
    Your tutor will assign specific sections of the exam based on your session, and full-length exams (less often) to make you familiar with the test-taking environment.

    Common Challenges with the ACT

    The ACT exam is considered to be more difficult than the SAT and vice versa. However, the truth is that both ACT and SAT students' knowledge in the same academic areas but each test emphasizes some skills more than others. ACT is more focused on punctuation and grammar whereas SAT is all about vocabulary. Since students are taking the ACT for the first time, adequate strategies must be used to achieve favorable outcomes. The ACT assesses students' skills in four dimensions: English, Math, Reading, and Science, and they must excel in all four to stand out from the rest. TutorNerds will assist you in your ACT preparation, bringing you one step closer to enrolling in the college or university of your desire.
