Applerouth Practice Tests at NAHS

In partnership with Applerouth Tutoring, North Atlanta hosts a series of SAT & ACT practice tests throughout the school year. There are 3-4 practice test opportunities each semester and are scheduled on Saturdays from 9am-1pm on the North Atlanta HS campus.

​

ACT and SAT Practice Tests:

Want to test drive the ACT or SAT without the pressure of an official score? Applerouth's full-length practice exams provides a testing experience under test like conditions. Afterwards, you will receive a comprehensive score report that identifies strengths and targets areas for improvement, so you'll know exactly where to focus your prep before your official test day.

 

Highly recommended for:

  • All college-bound Juniors and Seniors who will be taking an official ACT or SAT

  • Sophomores and Juniors who are planning on applying to dual enrollment in the upcoming school year

  • In preparation for the October PSAT:

    • Juniors who may be shooting for the National Merit Scholarship

    • Sophomores who are considering doing the IB program next year to help successfully meet the PSAT score requirement

 

The SAT/ACT Combo Test:

Should you take the ACT or SAT? 1/3 of students end up taking the exam they are not best suited for. This practice test includes questions from both the ACT and SAT. Students receive feedback that compares their performance on each section of the two exams This is a perfect opportunity to experience both tests, discover which test is the best fit for you, and target areas for improvement to help boost your score.

 

Highly recommended for

  • All college bound Juniors and Seniors who will be taking an official ACT or SAT

  • Sophomores and Juniors who are planning on applying to dual enrollment in the upcoming school year
