Q: Should I take the writing section of the test?
A: Some schools require it. Some schools do not. If you take the ACT Plus Writing test, you will receive standard ACT scores plus two additional scores. One will be scaled score from 1 to 36, which combines your performance on the Writing test, and the English test. The other will be a subscore, ranging from 2 to 12, which reflect how you did on your essay. Neither score contribute to your composite score.

Testimonial
I took this ACT prep class before the December ACT. I just wanted to thank you for creating this class because it helped me so much! This was my third time taking the ACT. I raised my score from a 26 to a 30, which means that I will now be earning a total of $16,000 more for my academic scholarship over four years!
My reading category score rose seven points! The other categories improved also, ranging from an increase of one to five points. Earning the 30 for my composite was two points above my projected range!
I just wanted to thank you again!

I made it from the bottom of my range to the top with a 4 point increase in my composite. I am so excited and so grateful that you gave me the tools to do my best.
These scores qualify me for two goals I have- an advanced course in my senior year and the honors program at my top school.
Thank you so much for all of your help!

A teacher at our son’s high school recommended your program. Our son has really struggled throughout his history in school, he has very low academic confidence and his first round ACT scores showed both!
He took your July course and the July exam and just got his scores back. He jumped up 4 points! Amazing!
Thank you so much for teaching him some great study and test taking strategies! It really made a difference.
