Our mission is making an impact, delivering subject tutoring & test prep achieving exceptional student results. Naperville Tutoring's proven test prep results will enable you to enter the University of Choice.

We strongly encourage submission of your ACT & SAT test scores to universities that prefer tests, even if they are "test optional". The percent of students admitted with a test is higher than without a test at many universities.

Your GPA is important for admissions as a measure of your academic achievement, however, the ACT or SAT tests have score distributions that have not changed over time compared to students' GPAs. Admissions have seen a GPA inflation over time, meaning that there are more A's currently than seen a decade ago. The ACT & SAT test scores are consistent over time.

We revel in a culture of learning and helping others. Our tutoring process is a guidance & educational methodology, closing knowledge gaps, reaching high composite test scores which align with students' goals.

And as a by-product student's increased confidence will serve them throughout life. Parents tell us where their sons and daughters excel ... years later, when achieving the career and job of choice!

Now that is what we are talking about....Naperville Tutoring's life-changing mission accomplished!

RESULTS!

That’s what you want when you invest in ACT or SAT PREP. You are paying for results and not for the course itself.

There are two factors to consider when you decide whether or not it is worth it to take SUMMIT ACT PREP ™ or
SUMMIT SAT PREP ™ … a quantitative factor and a qualitative factor. First, let’s talk about the quantitative factor that is on everyone’s mind regarding a college education: Money.

What does your investment in SUMMIT ACT PREP ™ or SUMMIT SAT PREP ™ buy you? Perhaps up to a 814 % or better return on your investment! Does that sound implausible to you? It shouldn't.

Getting your ACT score to 30 or higher, or a 1390 on your SAT combined with your GPA of 3.7 or better, could land you a full ride scholarship at many universities. With the average 4 year public and private college cost for tuition and fees of $36,556 to $124,924, a full ride scholarship represents a 814 % to 3,3023 % return on your investment. For many universities with a 4 year cost for tuition and fees of up to $280,000, your return on investment would be considerably higher than 3,023 %. We don’t know of any investor who would not be ecstatic over that return on investment.

OK, so maybe you won’t get a full ride. What does our student average ACT or SAT score improvement of 3 points on the ACT Test or 100 points on the SAT Test get you? Every one point improvement in ACT score or 30 points on an SAT could result in ten of thousands of scholarship dollars. A two thousand dollar per year scholarship over your four years represents a 100% return on your investment. Who wouldn't want that and the lower college debt that goes along with it? Ask your college admissions office what ACT or SAT score would award you scholarship dollars & possibly a full-ride?
