Real results from students and families who used Acely
I tried a variety of tools to study, from super-expensive tutors to other online materials, but Acely was by far my favorite. Acely’s platform gives you a breakdown of where your averages are highest and lowest, so you know where to focus.
Connor, Acely SAT Student
My daughter was accepted to MIT, Dartmouth, Columbia and Princeton. I was going to put her in a different prep course, she chose this instead. I’m so glad it worked out well for her!
Claudia, Acely Parent
I couldn’t afford private tutors and other online options were financially out of reach. I found Acely on Instagram and worked toward my SAT date. I received my score, 1520, which is what I wanted.

Khan Academy is a great starting point for SAT foundations, but it offers only 8 practice tests, no ACT prep, and no personalized study plan. Acely offers 30 SAT tests, 20 ACT tests, and a study plan that automatically updates based on your performance, all in a single platform.
ChatGPT is a general-purpose AI with no practice tests, no validated question bank, and no way to track your progress. Acely was purpose-built for the digital SAT and ACT, with score predictions validated within ±20 points of official results and a study plan that adapts automatically to your performance.
Kaplan has been helping students prep for tests since 1938, but its standard SAT course includes just 4 practice tests and 500 questions, starting at $650. A personalized study plan requires spending $1,600 or more, and its AI tutor is only available at the $650 tier and above. Acely includes 30 SAT tests, 9,000 questions, a personalized study plan, and an AI tutor on every plan, starting at $49/month.
Princeton Review is a premium test prep solution with strong live instruction, and for students who need that structure it can be a good fit. But at $2,199 for their flagship SAT course and $420/hour for private tutoring, it is out of reach for most families. Acely gives you more practice tests, a personalized study plan, and an AI tutor for $588/year.
