SAT/ACT Test Prep

There are many reasons to do SAT/ACT test prep.

Some students want to get the highest score possible to maximize their college options. Others want to achieve a score that will qualify them for merit scholarship funds or an honors college—or to hit the minimum score required for a specific program or athletic recruitment. No matter the goal, Ivy Experience teaches essential strategies and skills for mastering the SAT and ACT, boosting students' confidence, alleviating their test anxiety, and readying them for success.

Our Process

We want to make the SAT/ACT test prep process as stress-free, efficient, and successful as possible.

Weekly Meetings
Meet students for one hour each week, assigning homework between sessions.

What our students and parents have to say

My son Joey worked with Ivy Experience for ACT test prep and essay writing and I highly recommend Ivy to anyone who is about to begin the college admissions process. Our tutor was amazing and my son's score improved almost 10 points from start to finish. With the help of Ivy Experience, my son got into his reach school and will be attending in the fall.

Susan R. - Parent

While the improvement in our daughter’s scores after working with Ivy Experience was dramatic, the far greater impact was on her self confidence. She went from fearing and dreading the testing and application process to having a sense of pride and ownership. There is no magic pill and she worked hard to make her gains but without the tutor’s voice of calm, sense of reason and startling breadth of experience and knowledge, I don’t think she would have accomplished as much regardless of the time she put in. We are already planning on hiring an Ivy Experience tutor for our son next year.

Andrew E. - Parent

I can't say enough in praise of this company and their services. My child can skype her tutor and has brought her ACT score up a few points!! No worries getting her to tutoring appointments because all the magic happens at home on her laptop!

Cristin W. - Parent

I would encourage every student to take the SAT/ACT diagnostic that Ivy Experience offers. Our son’s college acceptance list, I believe, has a lot to do with him choosing the right test. Other families ask how we had such success on this journey and I tell them we got a positive start with choosing the right test and Ivy Experience’s style of test prep.

Sue D. - Parent

We had a great experience all around from customer service to tutoring. We saw a big jump in SAT scores after just a few sessions. Very professional, rapid turnaround to set up our sessions. We went for the Skype tutoring which went off without a hitch. Thanks Ivy Experience!!
