Montclair Kimberley Academy and Compass Education Group have partnered to offer an at-home, computer-proctored ACT practice test at no cost. This test is the classic ACT format: the science test is required and included in the Composite score. The test results are invaluable in helping the MKA college counselors and Compass directors craft the ideal testing and test prep plan for each student.
DATE & TIME
- The at-home, computer-proctored ACT practice test (classic format: the science test is required and included in the Composite score) is available any time between Saturday, October 19th, and Sunday, November 10th.
The registration deadline each week is Thursday. By Friday, we will send you a detailed confirmation email; the link to take the test will be included; you can take the test anytime during the open testing window.
