ACT / SAT Resources

UCPS will host virtual ACT and SAT practice tests to provide students with an authentic, simulated test experience. Practice test dates and registration are to be determined. 

All UCPS high school students have access to timed practice ACT and SAT tests as well as independent practice through Albert. Students should log in with Clever, beginning with the student startup page. 

Once logged in, students will see a course with their grade level and ACT/SAT Practice in the title. They can click into the course and begin the practice test. Each section is timed just like the real ACT/SAT tests. Students can take individual sections of each test separately. After taking the tests, students can see which skills they need to work on. A second practice test will open at the beginning of the second semester.

• Students have access to a timed practice SAT and ACT assessment. 
• Once students have completed the timed test, they can practice. Scroll to the bottom of the landing page on Albert and choose the subject from the "Independent Practice" section.
