"The diagnostic was the single best investment we made in our son's college prep. We had no idea he'd score so much better on the ACT than the SAT. That insight alone saved us months of wasted preparation time."
The SAT/ACT Diagnostic is ideal for students in grades 9–12 who are beginning their standardized test preparation journey, unsure whether to take the SAT or ACT, or looking to establish a baseline score before starting a tutoring program. It's also perfect for students who have already taken one test but want to compare their performance on the other.
Students take both a full-length SAT and a full-length ACT, each administered under official timing conditions. The total testing time is approximately 5–6 hours, typically spread across a single day or two sessions depending on scheduling preferences.
Yes. We offer both in-person and remote proctored options. Remote students receive the same quality of assessment, score analysis, and expert consultation as in-person participants.
Regular time follows the official SAT and ACT timing exactly as students would experience on test day. Extended time (50%) is available for students with documented accommodations who receive extra time on standardized tests. Both options are $250 and include the same comprehensive score analysis and expert consultation.
You'll schedule a one-on-one consultation with a Zoffness specialist to review the results in detail. We'll recommend which test to focus on, identify specific areas for improvement, and outline a personalized prep plan — whether that includes our tutoring programs or independent study.
The diagnostic is a standalone service, but for students who subsequently enroll in our SAT/ACT Instruction program, the diagnostic fee may be applied as a credit toward their tutoring package. Ask us for details during your results consultation.
We typically recommend the diagnostic for students in grades 9 through 12. Starting early — even as a freshman or sophomore — gives families the most time to develop a strategic preparation plan, though students at any stage of high school benefit from the assessment.
