- Not good at all
I listened to one episode on preparation for the night before and morning of the ACT. It was basic and generic info. Sure it was good but “Don’t go to a party or drink alcohol.” Ummm, ok, wow, I really didn’t see that one coming.
I tried a second episode on ACT error logs. The host couldn’t even pronounce the word Potomac. I mean WOW! How on earth do I get college prep info from a dude that can’t pronounce Potomac.
