Are you not sure when is the right moment to dive into SAT or ACT prep? This is a question I get asked often, so I wanted to break it all down for you today based on each grade level.
In our latest episode, I’ll reveal the best time to start practicing for standardized tests, how diagnostic scores work, and the academic factors that really matter when it comes to college applications.
You may find this episode a bit more instructional in nature and requiring more technical strategies, but I find it helpful to have one of these episodes every so often. So regardless of which grade you are currently in, I will provide you with guidance to help you navigate the SAT/ACT process with more confidence!
I’m also hosting a free live workshop this coming Wednesday that I highly recommend you register for. During this training, you’ll learn 3 high-level strategies you must implement to get accepted into your dream colleges, new trends that we’re seeing in college admissions, along with any policy changes that have recently happened. I can’t wait to support you! You can reserve your free seat at https://passionprep.com/live!

NOTABLE QUOTES:
“The worst thing that could happen is if you take the SAT and ACT during your senior year, you’re going to be absolutely miserable…I’ve rarely seen a senior student do well on the SAT just because of how taxing it was to prepare during that time..”
“Harvard is not going to look at your SAT scores and say ‘Wow, let’s accept this student’. It is just one evidence that you are showing you are academically competitive.”
“There are definitely ways of compensating if you feel your SATs or ACTs are not your strongest suit, and that’s where we really help our students inside our programs.”
