College test prep classes scheduled at IVCC

Illinois Valley Community College’s Continuing Education Office offers classes in February, March and April for college-bound high school students planning to take standardized college admissions tests.

The class de-mystifies college admissions testing such as the American College Testing (ACT) or Scholastic Aptitude Test (SAT) and relieves anxiety about the upcoming exams. Participants will take practice tests and review questions as well as learn test-taking skills, answering strategies, exam pacing and the scoring system.

Each class meets for two sessions. The first ACT Test Prep class will meet February 22 from 8:30 a.m. to noon and March 1 from 8:30 a.m. to 1 p.m. The class ID is 19728. The second ACT class will meet March 1 from 8:30 to 11:30 a.m. and March 29 from 8:30 a.m. to noon. The class ID is 21713.
