Ace the ACT

Ace the ACT is Montgomery's premier college and career test prep resource.  Our course is unique because it not only delves into content skills and testing strategies, but it also places a heavy emphasis on study skills and career planning.

This is an online course.  Class sessions will be held for 8 weeks on every Tuesday and Thursday starting August 27th and going through October 17th.  Classes will be from 4:00 pm to 5:00 pm.  This is in preparation for students to take the ACT exam on October 26th.  (Note: The deadline for registering for that exam is September 20.)

Frequently Asked Questions:

• Who is this program for? This is for 10th through 12th grade students ---both first-time and repeating test takers--- wanting to increase their potential for making their desired score through rigorous content training.  In addition, this program helps students gain valuable knowledge of the career and college research process.
• Who is teaching this program? The developers of Ace the ACT are Derek and Ashley Lovett.  They are secondary education teachers and have been conducting ACT prep for well over five years.  Presumably they will be the primary instructors; however, additional qualified instructors may be utilized.
• Where and when will this program be held? It is virtual.  In addition, we are working to set up "hubs" where students in Montgomery and surrounding areas can work afterschool on their devices.  The sessions are scheduled for one hour (4 - 5 pm CST) on Tuesdays and Wednesdays.  Dates and times may slightly change, as necessary, up until the start of the second week.  (See refund policy below.)
• How do I access the live sessions? A unique Zoom Link will be sent to the email you share with us upon registration.  This link will be shared with you prior to the first session and can be used to access the sessions over the 8-week duration.
• What materials are required? Students only need to have access to a device, preferably a laptop or a desktop in which they can clearly see the ACT live instruction.  In addition, students will want to keep a notebook to take notes during the live sessions and work out practice problems on their own.
• How do I access resources for this program? Resources will be housed in the program module on this site.  You will be emailed a link to set up your free account and access the program resources after registration.
• Can I get a refund if I cancel? Yes, you may cancel and receive a full refund if you do so prior to the first session.  If you cancel before the the start of Week 2 of the program, you will be refunded 80% of payment.  No refunds are available thereafter.  Nonetheless, if for any unforeseen circumstances this course is canceled at any point, you will be refunded in full.
