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?

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.

We chose A+ for Preparation for college entrance exams. My son has one tutor for math and science and another tutor for the verbal portion of the exam. They are both very knowledgable in their respective subject areas. They are also friendly! Developing a rapport is important, especially working with teenagers! A+ Test Prep service is also great with communication. Each week we get a reminder about the upcoming session, as well as a written summary of the core concepts that were covered during the session. I would highly recommend A+ for Test Preparation!

My son looks forward to working with his math tutor every week. His sessions are full of laughter and he participates willingly. He used to run and hide whenever math was even mentioned. He has a great relationship with his tutor, Ms. Leslie. She’s always willing to help him.
