Register for a Practice ACT in the New, Shorter Format
The new, shorter ACT will debut nationally on September 6th, 2025. The current ACT will be discontinued after the July 12th test date.
Every student’s first practice ACT is free of charge. Call us at 203.352.3500 to register for a Free Practice ACT.
Students and parents will receive scores and a comprehensive score report immediately after completing the practice ACT. In addition to providing a baseline score, our score reports identify areas of strength and target those in need of improvement.

IMPORTANT FOR SENIORS: The Composite on the new ACT will be the average of the English, Math and Reading sections. The Science section is optional. If students have taken the current ACT and Science is their lowest score, we highly recommend taking the September 6th ACT so their Composite superscore will no longer include Science.
