Kaplan: Complete Preparation for the ACT
Kaplan is happy to launch its ACT preparation course in the UK!!
With SAT tests being booked up months in advance and more and more universities accepting the ACT, an increasing number of students have requested these preparation courses. The London Kaplan Center is now happy to announce that we are beginning to offer Kaplan’s ACT Classroom Course in 2008! This is the same classroom course that is taught by Kaplan in the United States – the same practice tests, the same extensive homework questions, the same score-raising strategies – now in the UK!
