Get the help you need

For some students, facing the ACT, PSAT, or SAT is no big deal. If that sounds like you, all you probably want is to pick up a few solid test-taking strategies. ZAPS can do that for you. No problem.

But maybe you're one of the tens of thousands of teens each year who doesn't like having your future hang on a single Saturday-morning test. Maybe you're nervous or need some serious test-taking strategies to get you through. ZAPS can help you, too. Find out about our strategy-focused seminars and webinars.

ZAPS strategy-focused SEMINARS and webinars

When it comes to the ACT, PSAT, or SAT, we know the strengths and weaknesses of the tests — the kinds of traps you'll face and how to avoid them. Think of the strategy-focused, five-hour ZAPS ACT seminars and PSAT/SAT seminars and strategy-focused webinars as your first line of defense against the unknown.

No, we can't raise your IQ or teach you what you should have learned in the past 10 or 11 years of school. But we can give you the strategies to make the best of the knowledge you've acquired.

ZAPS subject-review webinars

Maybe you took Geometry two years ago, and you can't remember how to find the hypotenuse of a right triangle. Or maybe the thought of taking the ACT Science test freaks you out because you're really not that into science. Or, perhaps you're great at Math and Science, but the intricacies of English have you baffled. Take heart! ZAPS subject-review webinars can help!

In each two-hour, subject-review webinar, you'll meet online with an instructor (yes, a living, breathing, human being!), who will walk students through several important concepts for a given subtest of the ACT or PSAT/SAT. Your instructor—an educator who specializes in the subject you need help with and who is a trained test specialist—will also teach you the ins and outs of item types that are specific to that test. You'll have opportunities to ask questions and get answers as you go over sample problems in depth.

ZAPS subject-review webinars are the perfect complement to the strategy-focused ZAPS seminar or webinar. Each focuses on a different skillset, so you can choose exactly the help you need and no more.
