My 10th grader took the pre-act at school yesterday. I’m not sure if that might be an option for your son. We’re going to see what areas it shows he needs improvement on & go from there. He felt like he ran out of time, so that will definitely be something we will have to work on. From what I’ve read starting next year, once they’ve taken the test once, they can just take a section or two at a time on the next test. I think this will be great, because if they do poorly on a section, they can just study for that section and take it. The school my son is committed to Superscores, so I’m not sure how a school that doesn’t Superscore will handle this. Also not all schools require the written essay section & it is scored separately if it is taken.
