ACT Test Prep

EDUC-90028

Score higher on the ACT® with exclusive test-taking tactics

 

The ACT entrance exam is used by most colleges and universities to make admissions decisions. This multiple-choice test is used to measure a high school student's readiness for college within the fields of English, math, reading and science. In addition, the test aims to provide colleges with one common data point that can be used to compare all student applicants. The importance of ACT scores in the college application process does vary from school to school, but as a rule of thumb, the higher a high school student scores on the ACT, the more options they have for attending and paying for college.
 
Let the University of California San Diego support you in increasing your ACT score through its innovative and sophisticated ACT prep course. This course is designed for the student whose busy lifestyle demands efficient prep in a condensed amount of time by focusing on the test topics that impact your score the most. Students will learn exclusive test-taking tactics specifically designed to increase their scores.
