Why is this course better?

  • You'll be able to go through this whole course in a matter of days, and master it in a matter of weeks. It's the easiest, most effective ACT method I've ever seen or heard of.
  • You get access immediately—literally just a few minutes from now—and retain unlimited lifetime access for your entire household for a single one-time payment.
  • You can take this course at your own pace, in your own home, on your own time. You don't have to get up early to drive across town to a testing center, or waste your evenings taking boring, inefficient classes in some hotel meeting room somewhere.
  • You get nine training videos covering every single aspect of the ACT, including general ACT training and specific information targeting all the different sections and question types.
  • Below every training video is a link to a downloadable, printable PDF "cheatsheet" with a summary of ideas from that video for easy review.
  • My course is laid out in an easy to use, intuitive format so you can get the most out of every minute you spend studying.
  • Each of my training videos includes discussion of real ACT sample questions showing my strategies in action. But that's just the beginning . . . because my course also includes a series of videos of me talking through an entire real ACT practice test, question by question. You can literally watch me talk through and solve an entire test, and see my strategies at work on real questions. In many cases, I'll answer the questions using more than one approach, so you can learn which one works best for you.
  • Many people have told me that these 224 videos alone (one per question) are the most helpful ACT training they've ever done. With these videos you'll be able to see how the ACT really does just use the same basic concepts and ideas over and over and over (and over and over...) again. You NEED to understand this crucial aspect of the ACT, even though just about every test prep 'authority' ignores it.
  • This course and your real ACT practice questions are literally everything you need to get ready for the test—once you've got them, all you need to worry about is studying the methods and practicing them intelligently.
  • Do you have my ACT Prep Black Book, Second Edition? If so, don't worry—this course doesn't contain any "secret techniques" that aren't in the Black Book. The book and the course each contain my entire approach to the ACT, just in different formats. So if you have the Black Book and you're happy with it, and you're not interested in the video format, then you don't need to buy this course for any extra strategies or information. Think of this course as a faithful movie adaptation of the Black Book.
  • This course also comes with my complete SAT video course as well! So if you or anyone in your household decides to take the SAT at any point, you're covered for that as well.
  • And, of course, should you decide that you are unsatisfied with this product, just say the word within 30 days of your purchase and you'll get a full refund, no questions asked—the only thing you have to lose is all the stress and worry of preparing for the ACT. You can simply email your refund request to me and you'll be taken care of. (Try doing that with a traditional test prep company...)

Your Instructor: International Private Tutor and Best-Selling Test Prep Author Mike Barrett


Mike Barrett
Mike Barrett

Barrett is the co-author of the top-selling indie SAT and ACT books on Amazon.

Mike Barrett is a test-prep expert who has been tutoring people for standardized tests ever since he was in high school. His approach to tests like the SAT, PSAT, ACT, GRE, GMAT, and LSAT is unique in that it is based on his strategic analysis of the role of testing in education and in admissions, rather than on a superficial appraisal of the supposed "subject-matter" of an individual test. In other words, while most test-prep courses will teach students to memorize a list of vocabulary words for the GRE, for example, Barrett explains to students how top-scoring GRE-takers minimize the importance of vocabulary by exploiting certain weaknesses inherent in the process of standardization itself.

Barrett employs a variety of formats to work with students: He tutors over the phone and in person, he lectures to large groups, he holds small seminars, he sells online video courses, he publishes books, and he offers training materials through his blog and through YouTube.

Tens of thousands of students have used Mike Barrett's ideas to improve their performance on standardized tests. Because of the sheer volume and variety of feedback he has received from these tutoring students, Barrett has been able to refine his approach to testing—and tutoring—in a way that sets his methods apart from those of other test-prep resources.

Frequently Asked Questions


When does the course start and finish?
This is a completely self-paced online course. All modules and videos are available instantly as soon as you sign up, and you can choose to view them whenever you like.
How long do I have access to the course?
This course offers unlimited lifetime household access, which means that you can watch the course whenever you like, and share it with anyone in your household. You'll also automatically receive any future updates at no additional charge.
What if I am unhappy with the course?
We would never want you to be unhappy! If you're unsatisfied with the course in any way, contact us within 30 days and we'll give you a full refund. No questions asked, no fine print. To our knowledge, this is the strongest guarantee in the field, and we can only offer it because the vast majority of our students are happy with their purchase.
How is this course different from the ACT Prep Black Book, Second Edition?
The concepts in this course are the same as those taught in the Black Book. We like to say that the video course is like a faithful movie adaptation of the Black Book. If you're already seeing the improvement you want from the Black Book, then you don't necessarily need to view these videos. On the other hand, if you prefer your ACT training in a video format, and/or if you'd like to see walkthrough videos of an entire real ACT from ACT, Inc. that's not covered in the Black Book, then these videos might be a good choice for you.
