FinnPREP ACT Prep boosts ACT scores by an average of 5 points

FinnPREP is located near ACT headquarters in Iowa City and we check in with test prep officials frequently. This is how we ensure that our students are getting the best ACT prep possible.

We’re proud of the success we’ve had with our ACT prep system. Teens tell us that the test-taking tips we teach help them feel ready—mentally and emotionally—for the college entrance exam. Preparation is key, which is why we prefer to start working early with teens to identify subject area weaknesses and coach them on how to tackle tricky questions and mental blocks.

The FinnPREP method of ACT test preparation shows teens the fastest way to solve problems so they move quickly and efficiently through the exam, finishing on time or even with time to spare. Our ACT tutoring method ensures that your teen feels confident, like the winner they are.

Our ACT prep is rigorous but also supportive and encouraging. We stand with them and make sure they are 100% ready to score high.

We recommend 8 weeks of ACT Prep to prepare for the ACT test. Summer is an ideal time to prep because students have more time to dedicate to test prep.

Testimonials

When our son retook the ACT test, he had two main comments: 1. It was the hardest math test of the three tests he had taken 2. He was able to complete every question on the test for the first time. When he received his results two weeks later, he received his highest score ever in three different sections (including math!) and his overall composite score jumped four points. He is now well-positioned with high test scores, along with his good GPA, to receive the highest level of school-provided scholarship money at each of the Top 3 schools he is evaluating. Kelly certainly helped him move from a very good candidate for enrollment to an excellent candidate. Several professors and admissions staff have commented that breaking that 30-level aCT score sets him apart from most other students. We want to thank Kelly for her support and service provided

If you are looking for a way to help your child boost his ACT score, this is the place. My son worked had one on one tutoring sessions with Kelly. I have to admit, I was a little reluctant as I did not think there was any chance he would boost his score to the level he needed to attend his dream school. The environment was very safe and supportive. My son felt very good going into his September test after 4 private sessions. The results were an increase in 5 points. My son will now be able to attend the out of state school he has been dreaming about because he qualified for a huge scholarship. Do not hesitate to use Finn Prep. The investment is well worth it in the long run. Thanks for all your help, Kelly!

We were so pleased with the help Kelly’s course provided to our son. He ended up with a terrific score! Our son even noted that he did better in Algebra 2 after working with Kelly. I so appreciate what Kelly accomplishes in such a short time. She really targets what they need to achieve higher scores.
