Students will experience traditional Math, Science, Reading, and English ACT classes (separate classes) that provide lessons in math, science, grammar, composition, vocabulary, and tips and strategies. There are lectures, quizzes, practice tests, reviews, and homework. Students will follow up their studies with intense testing and review for the 4-5 weeks immediately before the official ACT is to be administered.

 

Accel recommends the ACT for students who do well in school but whose ability is not necessarily reflected by standardized testing scores (SAT).

 

The ACT questions and answer choices are presented in much more straightforward terms than those on the SAT; therefore, good students are not tripped up by tricky, convoluted phrasing and, as a result, get better scores that more accurately reflect their performance in school. However, the ACT contains a Science section with questions similar to those on the Keystone tests. If students are truly bewildered by science, they may find the ACT challenging.
