Your Teen is Smart — So Why Isn’t Their ACT  Score Higher?

You’ve seen them study. You’ve watched them try. But their ACT score just doesn’t match their potential – and that could cost them thousands in scholarships.

A single 2-point score jump can mean $10,000+ in merit aid. We’ve helped students go from 24 to 28… 27 to 34… even from the teens into the 20s.

  • Real money.
  • Real college options.
  • Real confidence.

The ACT Score = Scholarships

For many schools, a 28+ ACT score can mean automatic merit aid — sometimes up to $10,000–$20,000 per year.
Most families don’t realize how much money is left on the table with a “good enough” score. That’s why we built this course.

So your child doesn’t just get into college —
they get paid to go.

Hours of Prep, Same Score

Your child has taken the ACT,
and the score didn't reflect their abilities.
They're spending hours on prep materials without seeing improvement. Or they're approaching
their last testing opportunity before college deadlines, and the pressure is mounting.
However, without a clear system that addresses why scores aren’t improving,
students end up repeating the same mistakes and becoming increasingly frustrated
with each attempt.

What Most Students Get Wrong

Document

They think more practice equals better scores

Taking test after test without understanding what went wrong just reinforces bad habits. Practice without strategy is wasted effort.

They assume school is preparing them

High school teaches content mastery, but the ACT measures strategic thinking under time pressure. These are entirely different skills.

They treat it like a knowledge test

The ACT tests how you think under pressure, how you manage time, and whether you can spot patterns and avoid traps.

They wait until it’s too late

Students realize they need help after they've already taken the test multiple times, leaving them with limited opportunities to improve their performance.

They study everything equally

Not all questions and sections have equal potential for gaining points. Without knowing where to focus, students waste time on areas of low impact.

Understanding the ACT

When students understand what the ACT actually measures
and learn the strategic approach it requires, it changes the game.

They stop grinding through
practice problems
and develop specific
techniques for each type
of question
Time management becomes
second nature
through pacing strategies
that keep them on track
Trap answers become
recognizable patterns
rather than hidden pitfalls

Strategy Beats Content Every Time

You can't improve what you don't understand.
That's why throwing more practice tests at the problem doesn't work.

Most students make the same
critical mistake:

  • They focus on content when they should be focusing on strategy.
  • They memorize formulas when they should be learning time management.
  • They read passages carefully when they should know where to find answers efficiently.

The ACT rewards strategic thinking,
not just knowledge

  • It rewards students who understand question patterns
  • know which problems to skip
  • and can spot trap answers before selecting them

What Parents and Students Are Saying

Testimonial Slider

From a 27 to a 34 on the ACT

nGenius helped our son go from a composite score of 27 to a 34 on his latest ACT exam. The outcome was well worth the price we paid for the program.

— AB

They Care About Their Students

We absolutely loved our experience with nGenius. They know what they are doing, and they care about their students. They identified exactly the types of math problems my daughter needed to focus on and provided her with effective, targeted tutoring. She also learned test-taking strategies beyond what her high school test prep class provided. She raised her ACT score by 4 points! Yes, it may be more than you might want to spend upfront, but after sending three kids to college already, we know that the return on investment is totally worth it in scholarships.

- Sarah Dial

Full Scholarship to UAH

My son William just reached his goal of a 31 ACT superscore, which (in combination with a 4+ high school GPA) earned him a full scholarship to UAH! We couldn't have done it without nGenius Prep's amazing support. What really worked for William was their practical approach to ACT prep. The tutors provided him with specific test-taking strategies that he actually used during the real exam. The instructors genuinely care about their students' success. After seeing how they helped William achieve his goals, I can't recommend them enough to other families looking for ACT prep.

Immensely Helpful

nGenius bent over backwards to accommodate us! We would come back to them again and again. Their tutoring has been immensely helpful to our daughter in her freshman year of high school.

FAQs

How do I know this course will work for my child?

Every student is different, but this course is built upon everything we’ve used over the past 10 years, working with thousands of students at all levels. Whether your child is starting with a 16 or trying to progress from a 28 to a 34, we’ve applied the exact strategies we use in one-on-one tutoring to this course. If they show up and do the work, the results come. We've seen it again and again.

Why should I pay for this when there are free resources online?

There are free resources available, but most are generic, outdated, or lacking a clear strategy. This course provides your child with a comprehensive, step-by-step system designed explicitly for the latest ACT. They won't waste time figuring out what to do next or wondering if they're studying the right way. This is expert-level instruction, organized for real results, not guesswork. That's the difference.

This seems expensive compared to just buying a prep book.

You could buy a book for $30, but most students never even open it up. They're overwhelming, out of order, and don't provide any real guidance. With this course, your child gets expert instruction, targeted strategies, practice tailored to the new test format, and the flexibility to work on their own schedule. ScoreJump costs less than half of what you’d spend on a private tutor–and it actually works.

We're swamped. I don’t think we'll have time to finish it.

That's why we built it to be self-paced. The videos are short, precise, and targeted. You don't need to spend hours a day. Even just 15 to 20 minutes a day over a few weeks adds up to real prep time. And it's accessible 24/7, after school, on weekends, whenever works for your schedule.

We're already working with a tutor. Would this still be helpful?

Absolutely. We actually recommend combining this with tutoring. This course serves as your foundation, strategy, and content library. It keeps your child progressing between sessions and gives the tutor more time to focus on specific trouble areas, rather than re-teaching basics. It also gives them a chance to revisit anything they may have forgotten later, especially in the days leading up to the test.

How long will it take to complete this course?

The course is designed to be completed in 4 to 6 weeks, which aligns with the optimal prep timeline before test day. However, we didn't create this as a one-and-done resource. Students can revisit specific modules as needed, especially when reviewing strategies before their actual test date.

My child has already taken the ACT. Will this course still help?

Yes. In fact, many of our most successful students are those who've taken the test before without seeing the improvement they wanted. Having test experience actually helps because they understand where they struggled. This course gives them the strategic tools to address those specific challenges.

What if my child is running out of time before their next test?

The course is designed to deliver high-impact strategies efficiently. Even students with limited prep time can benefit from focusing on the sections and question types where they have the most room for improvement. We prioritize teaching what actually moves scores rather than covering everything superficially.
