Students generally take the ACT® during their junior year of high school. This course is ideal for rising juniors that may be taking the test for the first time and for those high school students that have already taken the exam but wish to improve their score.

An important part of any successful test preparation program is taking practice tests. Why then don’t we take practice tests during class?

Because our experience has shown that students perform better when every minute of class time is spent covering new topics. Practice tests are important, but they will be assigned to be taken outside of classroom time. This allows your instructor to cover more topics, and in more depth, than would be possible if practice tests were taken during class.

Practice tests are provided as part of your course materials, and your instructor will indicate when it is most beneficial for you to take them in order to best supplement your work in the classroom

Choose the Format That Works for You!

ACT Prep courses are offered on campus in Bowling Green, Kentucky, and also live-online, giving you the option to choose the format that works best for you. Our on-campus classroom programs combine the familiar experience of an in-person classroom with convenient online support resources. Live-online courses offer the same great program as the in-person ACT Prep Courses with the added flexibility of attending class from any location. Our virtual classroom provides you with the opportunity to interact in real time with our expert instructors and to re-watch the recordings of your classes at your convenience through 120 days after your last scheduled class session.

Live-Online Office Hours:

Weekly live-online office hours provide a convenient way for students to get individualized help with specific questions or concerns. The live-online office hours are free-form meetings open to all participants from both the on-campus and live-online ACT Prep Courses. The sessions are “drop-in” and student-directed, so there will not be a planned presentation for each session. Instead, our instructors will answer questions and work through problems in the order that they are received. 

Online Review System Requirements: 

The Live-Online ACT® sessions are offered online using Adobe Connect software.  All you need is a high speed internet connection, speakers, and an Adobe Flash Player, which can be downloaded for free.
