Preparing For ACT Tests At MCC

High school students can prepare this spring or summer for the upcoming national ACT tests with prep sessions offered on Saturdays in May and August at McHenry County College. The ACT prep sessions are offered in conjunction with the MCC Kids and College program.

Four-day comprehensive classes are designed to improve student ACT scores. Each class section focuses on one of four subjects: math, science, reading and English. The Barron’s book is included in the cost of the class and is distributed the first day. The class does not include the actual ACT exam. Students must register separately for the exam and should consult their school guidance counselors for information about taking the ACT test. 
 
The four-day prep class takes place from 8 a.m. to noon May 2, 9, 16 and 23. (Use course code #: NKC S04 018 to register). Another session will take place from 8 a.m. to noon Aug. 1, 8, 15 and 22 (use course code #: NKC S04 001 to register). 
 
Cost of the class is $165 and includes the book. Register online at www.mchenry.edu/myMCC. The college is located at 8900 U.S. Hwy. 14 in Crystal Lake.
For more information, contact Laura Beaupre at lbeaupre@mchenry.edu or (815) 455-8597. Students can visit www.actstudent.org for test sites, dates or test or contact their guidance counselor. Register early to ensure first choice placement.
