SAT climb

1180 to 1320 in 10 weeks

A common planning scenario for a student trying to move into a more competitive admissions band.

Result: The target is ambitious but supported by a real study plan.

ACT stretch

24 to 30 in 12 weeks

A bigger point jump where the weekly time commitment becomes the main constraint.

Result: This sits closer to the line where the plan must be very consistent.

Already there

Target already reached

Useful when deciding whether to retest or shift the energy toward essays, GPA, and applications.

Result: The score plan is satisfied, so the rest of the application may matter more.
