Learn how to craft the perfect SAT/ACT study plan!
A Step-by-Step, Optimized Study SAT/ACT Plan
One of the most common questions we get from students and parents is, “What’s a good study plan?” It’s a question that we struggle to answer, simply because every student is in a different situation and we don’t have the time to help every student on a case-by-case basis. (BUT, we do offer our tutoring students customized study plans!) What we’ve done instead is design a basic study plan that any student can use to begin crafting the perfect approach to getting that 1600 SAT or 36 ACT score. (This study plan can also help you score well on the PSAT.) With a few modifications, this study plan should work for any student in any situation, and it’s a study plan that will adapt with you as you learn, improve, and better understand how to prepare for the test.
The Study Cycle
The core of this study plan is the cycle. This is a set of study activities that you will repeat in a consistent pattern over the weeks and months you study. As you learn and understand your needs better, you can change this cycle to tailor it to your needs.

The great benefit of the study cycle is that you know exactly what your next task is. There’s no guessing or confusion. You know that the next time you sit down to study, your task is THIS or THAT. The study cycle helps you to work serially (in other words, step-by-step) rather than in parallel. Studying for the SAT and ACT can be difficult because there are so many different tasks and topics to review, and you might feel tempted to do it all at the same time. The study cycle tells you exactly what to do and in what order.

Another sweet feature of this system is that you don’t have to worry about what’s going on any different day. This system fits any schedule, though it works best if you can do a little bit each day rather than cramming. Just work when you can and the study cycle will be ready for you.
