COVID SAT
Test Optional Tips and Trends
Prior to the COVID-19 pandemic, there were 1,070 colleges that allowed applicants to choose whether or not to submit SAT or ACT scores. Over the past year, about 700 more colleges temporarily suspended their test score requirements, and at least half of those schools are currently considering extending their test optional policies. Despite the fact that life is slowly returning to normal, test optional policies seem poised to continue for the foreseeable future. How have test optional policies impacted students? Who should still take the SAT or ACT? What are other ways, besides test scores, to stand out?

Our experience with A+ tutoring truly exceeded all our expectations. The staff was very approachable, the communication was easy and efficient and the whole process worked perfectly smoothly. Our son's score improved for over 150 points within 10 weeks - a tremendous improvement. His tutor was competent, kind, and knew how to struck the right balance between practice, homework and encouragement. They get an A+ from us!

Executive Function (EF) tutor - 11th grade
First, wow! I wish I started with A+ sooner
We evaluated local tutoring services for my son who is on the EF bubble...he has trouble being organized and it effects his grades, but it isn't bad enough that the school district will provide assistance.
Dan was a great resource in our evaluation. We selected a different path and were terribly disappointed in the tutor's own organization and reporting. They were more disorganized than my son whom they were supposed to help with organization! (Missed appointments, no summary of the call...)
We went back to A+ and were amazed at the improvement in communications, organization, professionalism and connection with both our son and us.
Our son is in a much better place and it is due in large part to the A+ team. I wish I started with A+ and didn't lose 2 months...they are the best in the area! Tell Dan if you would like to speak more with me...it is a tough situation as a parent.

Used A+ for 3 of my kids and I am thrilled with the results! Scores went up drastically throughout the process and translated to amazing SAT and ACT scores. They clearly know what they are doing.

I shopped around for SAT/ACT Prep for my son. A+ was the most professional, kind and courteous. Amazing with communication. Keeping parents in the loop. They provided MindPrint which was a very helpful tool not only to us but also to the educators working with our son. The tutors he is working with at A+ (Josh and Andrew) are fabulous. They keep it fun, engaging and are also patient and professional. Hands down, A+ is the best. Save your time looking elsewhere. I’m very grateful and appreciative of their service.

A+ Test Prep and Tutoring lives up to its name. They are delightful to work with, and they provide outstanding, individualized coaching that can meet any student's needs. My son benefitted tremendously from working with them. No matter where you live, no matter what sort of test prep or tutoring needs you might have, I strongly recommend you give them a call and see what they can do for you.

It was very easy to sign my son up for the twice-weekly SAT review class. After day 1 I can report that he likes it--which is something because he is otherwise a little virtual-classed out. So far so good. Fingers crossed that it will actually help him to score higher on the SAT's.
