Keystone and Compass Education Group have partnered to offer an at-home, computer-proctored ACT and practice test at no cost. This test matches the current paper/pencil, linear version of the test. Compass will also be offering the brand new Digital Adaptive SAT at no cost. This new test (learn all about it here) mimics the computer-based test — question type, content, timing, duration, and adaptive structure. The results of these practice tests are invaluable in helping Keystone College Counselors and Compass directors craft the ideal testing and tutoring plan for each student.
