Diagnostic Testing
All colleges and universities in the country accept ACT and SAT equally, and both have become popular among Pittsburgh area students. For lack of better guidance and knowledge, most students end up preparing for both tests, but there is no need for students to divide their efforts practicing for both or for parents to spend unnecessary funds focusing on both.
Diagnostic Testing is a critical part of test preparation at Axios. It allows us to determine where your child currently is, but it also helps us gauge their strengths and challenges, which helps us build the best path forward for them to achieve their best.
After Axios Diagnostic testing, you will know:
Which test best matches your child’s academic abilities
When your child should target to take the test
How your child can be best prepared for the test

Yes, with the upcoming changes to the SAT, this can be a very confusing time for the families. There are not one size fit all answers. Rising juniors interested in identifying their test timelines over summer into early Fall should still take the ACT vs SAT comparison test. From the baseline scores, better testing timelines can be derived.
