Take the guesswork out of ACT preparation — pinpoint strengths, weaknesses, and pacing patterns before choosing a program.

Full Program Details

This approximately 2.5-hour evaluation identifies a student's current strengths, pinpoints specific content weaknesses, and reveals testing and time-management patterns — allowing us to recommend the most effective preparation plan for that individual student. Students may complete the assessment online at Best in Class or from the comfort of home. The diagnostic can be administered with standard or extended section timing and is available with or without the Science section.

Upon completion, students receive immediate scoring, detailed item analysis, and a comprehensive performance breakdown. The assessment also tracks time-on-task data, providing valuable insight into pacing, endurance, and how efficiently the student approaches each section.

Diagnostic results can be used to:

  • Establish an accurate ACT baseline score
  • Identify specific concepts and question types requiring improvement
  • Evaluate pacing and time-management skills
