Get Smarter Prep was an amazing experience because it completely changed the way I approached the ACT. Caleb taught me strategies that showed me it’s not just about what content you know, but the techniques you use to ensure quicker pacing and higher accuracy. I was able to increase 6 points within just a few weeks.

This is our second time using Get Smarter Prep, and we saw a 3-point raise in ACT score. Easy to schedule around busy high school schedule and he never complained about going.
Carrie Wieneke

A great experience — and a big jump in our son’s ACT score. The team is strong and Caleb was thoughtful, steady, and genuinely invested in helping our son succeed. The 1:1 guidance gave him confidence and helped him approach the test with a clear plan instead of stress. The whole process felt supportive and effective; exactly what you hope for as a parent.

Questions parents ask first
Who is the free practice test for?
Our free practice test is for any high school student (and their family) who wants an accurate, realistic picture of how they would score on the ACT or SAT.
It’s ideal if you:
1. Are just starting to think about college admissions and want a true baseline score
2. Plan to begin prep (classes or tutoring) and need to know where you currently stand
3. Want to practice in a real testing environment to reduce anxiety and get comfortable with timing
How much can a score realistically move?
Most students see gains of 3–6+ points on the ACT composite. The exact improvement depends on the starting score, time commitment, and how consistently students apply what they learn.
Do you tutor the SAT as well?
Yes. We offer private and semi-private SAT tutoring using the same proven approach we use for the ACT—targeted practice based on actual performance gaps.
What about college counseling?
We provide strategic college counseling to help students navigate applications, essays, and the entire admissions process. It's personalized guidance from start to finish.
Can a 529 plan pay for this?
Yes, in most cases. Test prep and tutoring are generally considered qualified education expenses under 529 plans. We recommend checking with your plan administrator to confirm.
