SAT and ACT Prep Methodology

Top Score’s SAT and ACT prep methodology starts with the premise that each student needs an individualized plan. We identify each student’s strengths and weaknesses before establishing a specific course of action.

Students learn how to apply test-specific strategies to the individual components of both the SAT and ACT. We focus on proper approach to each question type, content review and refreshment, and how to best utilize available resources – such as the Desmos calculator – to help each student maximize his or her scores.

Our philosophy is more than reciting tips or tricks; students learn how a particular strategy works and are able to execute it consistently and efficiently. As a result, Top Score’s students approach test day with the confidence that they are fully prepared for everything that they will encounter. This emphasis on process has helped thousands of students improve their scores and open doors to better college options.
