Demystifying College Admissions

SAT vs. ACT with Dan Ascher


Listen Later

In this episode of Demystifying College Admissions, I’m interviewing Dan Ascher, M.Ed, the president of A+ Test Prep & Tutoring, who specializes in helping high school students improve their SAT or ACT scores.

 

WHAT YOU’LL LEARN ABOUT IN THIS EPISODE:

 

  • How to discern whether individual or group test-prep is best suited for you.
  • The optimal time to take the SAT/ACT.
  • The biggest advantage you can have when preparing for the reading comprehension portion of the SAT/ACT, regardless of how old you are.
  • How to decide which SAT Subject Tests you should take

 

NOTABLE QUOTES:

  • “We get emotional very quickly when we work with our family.”
  • “If you do too much too early, you may get burned out a little.”
  • “You can read about things you like: read books about sports, the newspaper. You have to find things related to the interests that you have.”
  • “There are a lot of different paths to success and happiness in life.”
