Most students panic when they see an unfamiliar experiment on the ACT Science section, but the test is really about interpreting graphs, tables, and conflicting viewpoints under time pressure. Sugi's dual background in biochemistry and cognitive science — plus years of reading dense research literature in medical school — makes her especially effective at teaching students to extract data quickly without getting lost in scientific jargon. Her perfect 36 ACT speaks for itself.

The ACT Science section looks intimidating, but it's really a test of how quickly students can pull data from graphs, tables, and conflicting viewpoints — not how much biology or chemistry they remember. Jiatian, who has spent years interpreting research data in medical school, teaches students to ignore the jargon and zero in on trends, variables, and experimental design. That shift in mindset alone often unlocks significant score gains.

I'm currently a freshman at Rice University studying applied math. I've always had a love for sharing knowledge with others, and I started tutoring when I was a junior in high school. As a former AP student and a National AP Scholar, I have the experience necessary to guide my students through challenging curriculum. Though I specialize in tutoring mathematics and physics, I am experienced with and am happy to tutor a broad range of subjects.

I am a rising sophomore at Rice University in Houston, Texas. I am majoring in Social Policy Analysis with minors in global health technologies and biochemistry and cell biology. I am passionate about refugee advocacy, global health, and women's education. I am also on the pre-med track and hope to go to medical school after Rice. I have tutored for four years in high school and have a younger sibling that I have tutored in the ACT and standardized tests. I am pretty flexible and look forward to working with any new students.

The ACT Science section barely tests science knowledge — it's really about reading graphs, interpreting conflicting viewpoints, and drawing conclusions from data under time pressure. Raj's biochemistry training at Rice means he reads experimental setups instinctively, and he teaches students to do the same by zeroing in on axes, trends, and control variables before touching the questions. His 36 ACT composite came partly from treating this section as a data literacy exercise.

I am currently studying petroleum engineering at The University of Houston. Although I was typically a strong student in all areas throughout high school, there were some teaching styles I encountered that complicated the material more than was necessary. In fact, I avoided certain subjects for several years simply because of one unpleasant introductory class.

I am a rising sophomore in Georgetown University's School of Foreign Service. I am majoring in security studies thinking about working in counterterrorism. As far as tutoring style, I think it is really important not to give the student the answers but to ask them questions and help them come up with strategies to get to the answer for themselves; the goal is to make myself unnecessary in a way. My strengths (in school and tutoring) are in foreign languages including Latin and humanitiesexpect a very enthusiastic tutor especially if we are talking about Shakespeare! I also think it is important to try and frame things in a context students are used to, so if that means watching She's the Man in order to understand Twelfth Night, then that's what we will do (although we do have to read the actual play as well). If that sounds like something you could use, get in touch!

I'm Aurnab. I'm a Bioengineering student at Rice University. I've been tutoring since high school. Due to my wide background in a variety of subjects that I've studied, I have a very interdisciplinary approach to tutoring that can be tailored to any student to achieve results.

Most students overthink the ACT Science section because they assume it requires deep content knowledge — it doesn't. Wendy treats it as a data-interpretation exercise, teaching students to pull answers directly from graphs, tables, and conflicting viewpoints passages without getting lost in unfamiliar terminology. Her own 35 ACT composite came partly from mastering exactly this approach.

I am a graduate of the Johns Hopkins University with a major in Behavioral Biology. I am seeking admission to MD/PhD programs so a lot of my time has been spent in the lab, from a computational neuroscience lab at Hopkins to a genome editing lab at Rice. That being said, I have extensive experience tutoring for the ACT (35) and MCAT (516), both privately and contractually. I aim to get students the score of their dreams. With a solid plan of action and dedication YOU can get there.

Most students panic when they see unfamiliar experiments on the ACT Science section, but the questions rarely test actual science knowledge — they test whether you can read graphs, compare data trends, and evaluate conflicting hypotheses under pressure. Lila treats this section like a data-interpretation exercise and walks students through how to extract answers directly from figures without overthinking the content. She scored a 36 ACT composite.

Most students panic when they see the ACT Science section's dense graphs and conflicting hypotheses, but the questions rarely require actual science knowledge — they test data interpretation. As a biomedical engineering major at Rice, Theresa reads experimental data every day and shows students how to extract answers from figures and tables without getting lost in the surrounding text.
