Highly recommend! We bought the $400 ACT prep program. My daughter only had 4 weeks to prepare and a very busy schedule. PrepScholar hones where the study efforts are spent to focus the student – making the most efficient use of their time. The email updates for accountability are also great. I can’t say enough positive things but the results speak for themselves – my daughter went from a 25 to a 30! Thank you PrepScholar!

I would highly recommend PrepScholar for ACT prep. I love the accountability it provides through having my son commit to a schedule each week, then providing feedback of progress. It kept him on track with personally relevant material for improvement. My son started out with a diagnostic ACT score of 32 before starting with PrepScholar, and just received a 35 on the test. Well worth the investment!
Joanne G.
Parent
My daughter worked through PrepScholar to prepare for the ACT. There is no guess work. A full program is provided from a diagnostic all the way up to test day. Weekly communication lets parents know the amount of time your student is spending in the program. We couldn’t be happier and highly recommend PrepScholar.

As a parent, I researched many ways to help my daughter improve her ACT score. Other programs were only helpful for students who made about an average score. For students who made well above average, increasing points through those programs weren’t helpful. However, with PrepScholar, no matter the score, your child’s ACT score increased! So whether your child scored 15, 20, or 29, PrepScholar creates a series of practice lessons to improve your score! And one of the greatest parts, my daughter absolutely loves it. So worth it!

My daughter was able to use this program for 3 months prior to taking her 2nd ACT and increased her score by 5 points. The lessons review pertinent material and are specific to the individual based on the practice test results. The practice test was set up with a timer that mirrored an actual test setting. The feedback given for improvement was helpful at each stage of the lessons and practice.
Ken D.
Parent
My son used PrepScholar online program for ACT prep and his score increased by 5 points. This was without even finishing the entire program before the retake! He is contemplating continuing through to the end to see how high his score can get! The program was very user-friendly and focused on skill sets that target individual needs for improvement. Highly recommend

The program was exactly what it stated, a comprehensive guide to prepping my child to retake her ACT! The weekly progress checks helped keep you honest and with your help he raised his score from a 31 to a 35, time and money well spent! Thank you

Our daughter, Angela, was consistently making 26 composite scores on her ACT. After taking the PrepScholar courses, she was able to increase her ACT score to 30. Thank you for your program. It really made a difference for her and allowed her to get some great scholarships!
