Self-Studying vs Solid Prep Course

How much time to you have, Therese?

My daughter wasn’t totally stoked about studying for either ACT or SAT, but she really didn’t want to have to spend a lot of time in prep classes. We bought her some books and told her she could have one try at each test preparing on her own. (Well, with my help. I’m a former teacher, and I still tutor. Occasionally I do SAT prep with kids.) If she got scores we were all satisfied with, great! She’d be done. If not, Princeton Review.

She managed to avoid Princeton Review. Which made me happy, because deep down, I really didn’t want to part with that kind of coin.
