The Algebra Exit Exam: What You Need to Know

Across Chicago Public Schools (CPS), the Algebra Exit Exam is an important benchmark for mostly 8th-grade students taking high school-level Algebra I; the exam, often forgotten next to the High School Entrance Exams and CPS HSAT, plays a meaningful role in determining a student’s readiness for more advanced mathematics in high school. It isn’t a graduation exam or a state-wide requirement, but it is a district assessment given annually in the spring to students enrolled in an approved Algebra I course in 7th or 8th grade. The results help schools decide whether students are prepared for higher-level math like geometry or honors courses when they enter high school, and can result in students “testing out” of certain Algebra courses when they enter their secondary school.

The Algebra Exit Exam is aligned to the Common Core State Standards for Mathematics and the CPS Algebra I curriculum, meaning it assesses the key concepts students are expected to learn in that course. The exam includes a mix of multiple-choice questions and constructed response items that require students not only to solve problems, but also to explain their reasoning. Depending on the specific year and blueprint used, the exam typically features around 37 to 40 questions assessing foundational algebra topics such as expressions, equations, functions, and problem-solving with variables. It is administered online and usually takes about 120 minutes to complete.

Students take the Algebra Exit Exam near the end of the school year, often in late May, while they are enrolled in Algebra I. CPS students take the test at their own school during normal school hours, while non-CPS students who plan to enroll in a CPS high school must register to take the exam at a district-designated location on a weekend date in May. For the upcoming 2026-2027 school year, we anticipate that the exam will take place in late May.

When the exam is scored, students receive a scaled score; the results are classified as pass or did not pass. A score at or above the district’s established “pass” threshold indicates that a student has a generally consistent understanding of algebra skills and is ready to progress to the next level of math coursework. There is also a “high pass” category for students who demonstrate an especially strong and masterful understanding of algebra concepts. Students who earn a pass or high pass can typically enter geometry or honors geometry as freshmen, which positions them for accelerated math pathways throughout high school. This can also lead students to testing out of required Math-related courses when they reach college.

For families and educators, the Algebra Exit Exam serves several purposes. It ensures that students who take Algebra I in middle school have truly mastered the subject before moving forward, supports appropriate placement in high school math sequences, and can open opportunities for more advanced courses like honors geometry or AP mathematics. While the test is only one piece of placement decisions, preparing for it helps students build confidence and strengthens foundational math skills that will benefit them throughout high school and beyond.

Why Test Prep Matters for the ACT: How Practice Makes Perfect

The ACT is more than just a test of what you know in math, English, reading, and science–it’s a test of how well you can apply those skills under time pressure. For many students, the difference between an average score and a standout score doesn’t come down to intelligence or effort in school, but to preparation. This is where focused ACT test prep makes a real and measurable difference.

Practice is essential for the ACT because it has its own structure, pacing, and logic. Even strong students can struggle if they aren’t familiar with the way questions are worded or how quickly they need to move through each section. Regular practice with practice exams, material seen on the exam, and keeping time helps students recognize patterns, anticipate common traps, and build confidence with the test format. Over time, this familiarity reduces anxiety and allows students to focus on accuracy rather than panic. The ACT is quite fast-paced, and, as such, while many students may know the material, they can still simply run out of time. Through consistent practice, students learn pacing strategies, when to move on from a difficult question, and how to maximize points by prioritizing accuracy on questions they can control. These are skills that rarely develop on their own without guided practice and feedback.

Targeted ACT prep also helps students identify and strengthen their weaknesses. Practice tests reveal patterns—maybe grammar rules are costing points in English, or data interpretation is an issue in Science. Once those gaps are clear, focused tutoring can turn weak areas into strengths. Instead of studying everything at once, students learn how to study smarter, not longer.

National Test Prep Association Meeting with the College Board: Important Updates on the SAT

Recently, the National Test Prep Association met with the College Board, which provided some quality insights into SAT changes and updates, including meaningful improvements in how the exam is administered. Many of these changes are especially relevant for students and families navigating the testing process and preparing to take the exam for the 2026-2027 admissions cycle. Below, Test Prep Chicago outlines the most notable changes, and how these adjustments can benefit or impact your student and their test-taking experience.

Afternoon Testing

One of the biggest shifts is the introduction of afternoon testing at select commercial locations, such as hotels and convention centers. This past year, in addition to the traditional 8:00am start time, some students in California were able to take the March SAT at 1:00 PM, which went smoothly. If things continue to look good from a scoring and data perspective, this afternoon testing option is expected to return for students in the fall. For now, though, the College Board plans to limit afternoon testing to these larger commercial sites, since offering it at schools would create logistical challenges and make for an unusually long school day for staff.

Travel Benefits
For many families, this new afternoon option could make test day significantly easier from a travel perspective as well. Students who live far from a testing center often have to travel the day before and stay overnight in order to make it to an early morning exam. With a 1:00pm start time, those same students can now theoretically travel on the morning of the test and return home later that day, saving both time and money. It’s a small scheduling change that can have a big impact, especially for students in areas with little to no testing locations.

Overall Access
Access to testing continues to be a major focus overall. The College Board is actively tracking how far students have to travel to take the SAT, and the trend is moving in a positive direction. In California, for example, the average distance students traveled dropped significantly in just one year, thanks to the addition of more testing sites, the use of commercial locations, and the inclusion of afternoon testing. Efforts like these are expected to continue across the country, with the goal of making the SAT more convenient and accessible for all students.

SAT Security
Families can also feel reassured that test security remains a top priority. The College Board designs the SAT so that no two students receive exactly the same test, making it also extremely unlikely for a student to see the same question twice across different test dates. They also actively monitor for any leaked or compromised questions and remove them from use right away. This helps ensure that scores remain fair and that no group of students has an unfair advantage. Families should also note and factor this important information in as their student prepares for the SAT.

Tools for Preparation
At the same time, there are ongoing efforts to improve the tools students have access to in order to prepare. Updates are in the works for the official Question Bank, with the goal of making it easier to navigate and more useful for targeted practice. The “Practice Additional Questions” feature, which is tied to score reports, is also being refined so students can better focus on the areas where they need the most improvement. While there is no official timeline for these updates yet, they reflect a broader effort to make official prep resources more effective and student-friendly.

Test Prep Chicago can help you harness this information, along with the College Board's practice tools, in order to prepare for the SAT. Through our practice tests (which are based on real SATs), targeted homework assignments, focused SAT Math & Reading material, and test-taking strategies for both specific sections, taught by professional and experienced SAT tutors, TPC can help your student succeed on test day, no matter where they are testing. For students taking the exam this spring, sign up for individual tutoring now here while there is still time! For students taking the exam later in 2026 or in early 2027, learn more about our summer SAT prep course here. We can also provide individual tutoring for the SAT here at any time.

Average ACT and SAT Scores at Ivy League Universities

When people talk about Ivy League “cutoff scores” for the SAT and ACT, it’s important to start by correcting a common misconception: there are no official minimum scores that guarantee admission or automatically eliminate an application to an Ivy League school. Ivy League universities, which are elite, well-respected colleges with a rich American history, evaluate applicants holistically; they consider grades, course rigor, essays, recommendations, extracurricular involvement, character, and personal background alongside any standardized test scores that students choose to submit. Even so, understanding the average or typical score ranges of admitted students can be useful for setting goals and gauging competitiveness.

Across the Ivy League as a whole, SAT scores for admitted students are consistently far above the national average. Most schools report middle 50 percent SAT ranges that fall roughly between 1430 and 1580 on the 1600-point scale. While this range varies slightly by institution, many admitted students cluster toward the upper end, especially at the most selective schools. ACT scores follow a similar pattern, with most admitted students scoring between 33 and 35 out of 36, and a significant number earning scores at the very top of that range. Now, let’s break down average scores at each Ivy.

Harvard
At Harvard University, admitted students who submit SAT scores typically score near the top of the scale, often around 1550 to 1580, while ACT composite scores commonly fall between 34 and 36. 

Princeton
Princeton University shows very similar averages, with SAT scores usually landing in the low to high 1500s and ACT scores centered around 34 or 35. 

Yale
Yale University’s admitted students also post extremely strong results, with SAT scores often ranging from about 1500 to the mid-1500s and ACT scores generally in the low to mid-30s.

Penn
The University of Pennsylvania reports SAT scores for admitted students that commonly sit in the mid-1500s, alongside ACT composite scores around 34 or 35. 

Columbia
Columbia University’s averages closely mirror those of Harvard and Princeton, with SAT scores often falling between the low 1500s and upper 1500s and ACT scores clustered near the top of the scale. 

Brown
Brown University tends to show a slightly wider range, but its admitted students still usually score in the high 1400s to mid-1500s on the SAT and around 33 to 35 on the ACT.

Dartmouth
Dartmouth College, similarly, presents broader score ranges compared to some of the other Ivies, yet their averages remain highly competitive. Dartmouth’s admitted students frequently earn SAT scores in the high 1400s to mid-1500s and ACT scores in the low to mid-30s. 

Cornell
Cornell University, which is the largest Ivy League school, often reports SAT scores beginning in the mid-1400s and extending into the high 1500s, with ACT scores commonly ranging from about 32 to 35.

None of these averages should be mistaken for requirements or guarantees. Admissions offices at Ivy League universities consistently emphasize that standardized test scores are just one part of a much larger picture. A perfect SAT or ACT score does not ensure admission, and a score below the average does not automatically disqualify an applicant. Factors such as GPA, leadership, creativity, resilience, and impact outside the classroom often play a decisive role. Still, knowing typical SAT and ACT score ranges can help students understand how their scores compare to those of admitted students and decide whether submitting test results strengthens their overall application.

If you have a student looking to attend an Ivy League school, or any top American university, Test Prep Chicago can help. As a Licensed Provider of Official ACT® Content, our material includes Officially Licensed ACT® Content, making our practice tests some of the most accurate out there. Though our ACT and SAT prep courses have already begun, we are offering one-day workshops for students preparing for the ACT (enroll here), and can always provide individual tutoring (learn more and sign up here) for students preparing for one or both of the exams.

New: Mindset Reflections for ACT & SAT Prep Students Taking Practice Exams

Have a student enrolled in one of Test Prep Chicago’s ACT or SAT Prep courses, one-day workshops, or individual tutoring? We have great news: TPC has now implemented new, advanced analytical tools on our testing platform, Testpress, to help your student better understand their performance on our practice exams.

Once a student completes a Diagnostic or Final exam with us as part of one of our courses, or a Palooza Test as part of one of our one-day workshops, they receive access to detailed testing analytics, including information on their performance on each section, how many questions they left unanswered, how long they took on each question and each section, and more. Students also receive access to answer explanations for each question seen on the exam, regardless of whether they got it correct or not. 

Additionally, as students review the provided answer explanations for each question, they are now able to submit Mindset Reflections for any questions they answered incorrectly. Once submitted, students can access a detailed breakdown of their reflections, along with insights drawn from the pre- and post-exam questionnaires. This tool helps students understand why mistakes are occurring, identify recurring error patterns, and receive tailored test-taking strategies to support meaningful improvement as they continue to work toward success on the ACT and SAT.

If there is ever any confusion regarding how to use TPC’s Mindset Tool or access analytics on Tespress, students and parents alike can refer to our Testpress Tutorial Video (linked here). This video provides a step-by-step overview of how to log in to the platform, access materials, retake exams, review testing analytics, submit Mindset Reflections, and interpret the results. Parents are also welcome to reach out to our team, info@testprepchicago.com, with any questions at any time.

TPC will be running one-day workshops (click here) for the ACT through early April, aligning perfectly with April ACT testing dates. Note that TPC is a Licensed Provider of Official ACT® Content, and our material includes Officially Licensed ACT® Content. For students looking for one-on-one prep, TPC offers individual tutoring (click here) for students taking either or both the ACT and SAT; individual students also get access to testing analytics and the benefits of Mindset Reflections!

Identifying Areas for Improvement: Steps to Take After an ACT Practice Test

Taking an ACT practice test can be a useful tool for understanding your strengths and weaknesses, but the real growth comes from analyzing your results afterward. Understanding exactly why a student made errors on a practice test can help them make strides in the next practice test, and on the real exam!

To identify areas for improvement, a student can start by reviewing every question they answered incorrectly or guessed on. It is important to pay attention not only to the questions themselves, but also to the type of mistakes made. Was it a misunderstanding of the content, a misreading of the question, a careless error, or a timing issue? Recognizing patterns in these mistakes is key to understanding where you need the most improvement. 

On that note, it can also help to categorize errors by subject or skill. In English, a student might notice recurring issues with punctuation, grammar rules, or sentence structure. In Math, there may be an issue with specific topics like algebra, geometry, or trigonometry. Science questions often test interpretation and reasoning skills rather than factual knowledge, so difficulties here may indicate challenges in reading and interpreting graphs or understanding experiments. The Reading comprehension section presents students with a variety of passage categories and includes questions relating to main ideas, inferences, and details. For this section, it will be useful to review which types of passages or questions caused the most trouble for your student.

Finally, timing is another important factor to consider when reviewing test results. If a student consistently runs out of time or rushes through sections, it may indicate a need for better pacing strategies in addition to content review. Analyzing the thought process a student had while answering questions can also provide insight. Did a student know how to solve a question, but felt too rushed to go through their learned methods? Did a student spend a huge chunk of time on a question they did not know how to solve? It is often better for a student to take their best guess at a difficult question, rather than waste 10 minutes pondering it, and thus lose crucial time on the rest of the section.

After identifying common and underlying patterns in mistakes, students should prioritize the areas that most frequently impact their score. Rather than memorizing answers, go back to the basics; what fundamentals are missing? Overall, consistent improvement comes from strengthening skills and habits. Students should try to keep track of progress over multiple practice tests to see if targeted practice is helping. While this may feel meticulous, it is one of the most effective ways to turn weaknesses into opportunities for improvement.

One of the most exciting elements of Test Prep Chicago’s one-day workshops is that they include an opportunity for students to get inside information on their mindsets and the “why” of the errors they are making. After taking an ACT practice exam based on a real ACT test (TPC is a Licensed Provider of Official ACT® Content, and our material includes Officially Licensed ACT® Content) and breaking for a pizza lunch, students review test-taking strategies, along with answer explanations how to solve each problem seen on the practice test. On our test-taking platform, Testpress, students will also have the opportunity to complete “Mindset Reflections,” for each question answered incorrectly. Once submitted, students can access a detailed breakdown of their reflections, along with insights drawn from the pre- and post-exam questionnaires. The purpose of Mindset Reflections is to help students understand why mistakes are occurring, identify recurring error patterns, and receive tailored test-taking strategies to support meaningful improvement.

Digital SAT: Changes You Need to Know About

The SAT has undergone several significant changes over the years, and understanding these differences can help students prepare more effectively for the current version of the test.

Many families may be familiar with the SAT and its format from how it worked prior to 2023; students often took the exam in-school, paper/pencil. Since the 2023-2024 application season, though, there have been significant changes in where and how the exam is administered, and exactly what is on it.

Traditionally, the SAT was a static, 1600-point test divided into Reading/Writing and Math sections, with a mandatory essay and questions that often relied on memorization of vocabulary or formulaic problem-solving. The current version (dubbed the Digital SAT), however, is fully digital and adaptive, creating an experience that emphasizes critical thinking, reasoning, and real-world problem-solving over rote knowledge. Taking the test on a computer allows students to use built-in tools like calculators, highlighting, and easy navigation between questions, making it more user-friendly and less dependent on physical test-taking strategies.

The adaptive design of the new exam means that, instead of a fixed set of questions, the difficulty adjusts in real time based on a student’s performance. Correct answers can lead to more challenging questions, while mistakes may result in slightly easier items, helping the test measure skill level more accurately. The content of the SAT has also shifted slightly; Reading and Writing now focus heavily on evidence-based reasoning, comprehension, and analytical thinking, rather than vocab. Math emphasizes algebra, problem-solving, and data analysis through multi-step questions that test understanding rather than memorization. The essay, which was once required and opinion-based, is now optional and focuses on analyzing an author’s argument, reinforcing the test’s emphasis on evaluation and reasoning.

Finally, it is important to note that there has been a change in where the Digital SAT is taken by students, as the Digital SAT is no longer administered by CPS high schools. Instead, since 2025, CPS has administered an ACT test. As such, CPS students must register to take the SAT outside of school. Non-CPS students should be sure to check which exam their school is administering.

Test Prep Chicago is prepared to help your students navigate the changes from the old SAT and the ways of older standardized exams to the new ways of the Digital SAT. In addition to providing students with both a diagnostic and final exam based on the Digital SAT, students in our SAT prep course (which begins this weekend) receive packets of material to fill out pertaining to each section on the exam, which they will review with a tutor, test-taking strategies, and virtual homework assignments. The course begins this weekend and can be enrolled for here; make sure to sign up before slots fill up!

How the ACT & SAT Can Affect Scholarship Opportunities for Students

ACT and SAT scores do more than influence college admissions; they can also play a critical role in scholarship opportunities. Many merit-based scholarships consider standardized test scores as part of their eligibility criteria, making strong performance on the ACT or SAT a potential financial advantage.

Some scholarships use ACT or SAT scores as a straightforward cutoff. For example, a scholarship might require a minimum SAT score of 1300 or an ACT composite score of 28 in order to qualify. Students who meet or exceed these thresholds may automatically be considered, while those below the cutoff are ineligible. These types of awards make test performance a clear, measurable factor in scholarship eligibility.

Other scholarships are more holistic, using ACT and SAT scores alongside GPA, extracurricular activities, essays, and leadership experience. In these cases, a higher test score can strengthen a student’s overall application, improving their chances of receiving an award, even if it isn’t the sole deciding factor. Some programs weigh test scores heavily, while others use them as a tie-breaker when multiple candidates meet other criteria.

Overall, scholarship requirements can vary widely. Some state and university programs set minimum scores for eligibility, while private organizations may consider a combination of scores and achievements. Early research into scholarship criteria helps students target their preparation and set a target score, ensuring their test performance aligns with potential funding opportunities.

Ultimately, strong ACT or SAT scores can open doors to financial support that makes college more affordable. At Test Prep Chicago, we can help to ensure that students are scoring where they need to in order to be considered for life-changing academic and merit-based scholarships. Although our ACT prep courses have already begun, we have an SAT prep course that is still available for enrollment (click here). We also offer one-day ACT workshops (click here) in advance of April ACT testing dates. Note that TPC is a Licensed Provider of Official ACT® Content, and our material includes Officially Licensed ACT® Content.

Superscoring on the ACT & SAT: How it Works

Superscoring is a college admissions practice that can significantly benefit students who take the ACT or SAT more than once. Rather than evaluating a single test date in isolation, colleges that superscore consider a student’s highest section scores across multiple test dates and combine them to create the strongest possible overall score. The practice has become popular among many top universities over the last few years, and understanding how superscoring works can help families make smarter test prep decisions.

For the SAT, superscoring is straightforward. The SAT has two main sections: Reading/Writing, and Math. When a college superscores the SAT, it takes the highest Reading/Writing score from one test date and the highest Math score from another test date, even if those scores were earned on different days. These two best-section scores are added together to create a new, higher composite score. For example, a student might earn a stronger Math score on one test and a stronger Reading/Writing score on another, and both scores can count toward the final superscore.

ACT superscoring works slightly differently, but follows the same general principle. The ACT has four main sections: English, Math, Reading, and Science. Colleges that superscore the ACT take the highest score earned in each of these four sections across all test dates. They then average those four highest section scores to calculate a new ACT composite score. This means a student could improve their English score on one test, their Math score on another, and still benefit from both improvements when applying to superscoring universities.

It is important to note that superscoring policies vary by college. Some schools superscore both the ACT and SAT, while some superscore only one exam, while others do not superscore at all. Colleges that superscore typically allow students to submit all test scores and will automatically calculate the highest possible superscore during the admissions review process. Because policies can change, it is always wise for students to confirm each school’s testing policy directly.

Though superscoring can be a useful tool, students should still aim for balanced performance, as some colleges may consider all submitted scores in context, even if they ultimately rely on the superscore. Test Prep Chicago can help students improve their ACT and SAT scores. While all of our ACT prep courses have already begun, we still have an SAT prep course available for enrollment (click here). We will also be offering one-day ACT workshops (click here) in advance of April ACT testing dates. Note that TPC is a Licensed Provider of Official ACT® Content, and our material includes Officially Licensed ACT® Content.

Test-Taking Tips for the ACT & SAT

Standardized tests like the ACT and SAT can feel intimidating, but strong test-taking skills can make a meaningful difference regardless of a student’s starting score. While content knowledge and preparation is important, success on these exams also depends heavily on strategy, pacing, and mindset. Understanding how to approach the test itself allows students to stay focused, avoid common pitfalls, and make the most of the time they have on test day.

Time Management

One of the most important skills for both the ACT and SAT is time management. Neither test is designed for students to leisurely work through every question, so pacing must be intentional and practiced. Students should work within official time limits when taking practice tests and develop an internal sense of how long they can spend on each question. If a question is taking too long, it is usually better to move on and return later if time allows. Both exams reward accuracy, but it is always better to make educated guesses and answer all questions on the test than to leave any unanswered, as there is no penalty for incorrect answers.

Familiarity

Familiarity with question types is another key factor. The ACT and SAT are highly predictable in structure, meaning students will see the same styles of questions repeatedly from test to test. When students know what a question is really asking, recognize common traps, and have common conversions, equations, and rules memorized, they can respond more efficiently and with greater confidence. 

Process of Elimination

Process of elimination is a powerful tool on both exams. Even when a student is unsure of the correct answer, removing clearly incorrect options increases the odds of choosing correctly. Many wrong answer choices are designed to sound reasonable but contain subtle errors, exaggerations, or ideas not supported by the text. Slowing down just enough to compare answer choices carefully can prevent avoidable mistakes, and can also improve the accuracy of educated guesses.

Avoid Rushing & Double Check Work

Students should pay close attention to instructions and question wording. Rushing through directions often leads to simple errors that have nothing to do with content knowledge. Taking a brief moment to understand the task and double-checking work and answers can save time and points overall.

Organization

For math sections, organization matters. Writing down steps, labeling diagrams, and keeping work neat helps to avoid careless errors, especially on multi-step problems. On both the ACT and SAT, where a calculator is available for the entire math section, students should still think critically about whether using the calculator is efficient or if mental math is faster. 

Active Reading

Reading and science-style sections benefit from active reading. Rather than trying to memorize details, students should focus on understanding the main idea, purpose, and structure of each passage. Denoting where important information is located makes it easier to answer questions quickly and accurately. In data-heavy sections, students should rely on charts, graphs, and tables instead of overanalyzing the surrounding text.

Mindset

Finally, mindset plays a major role in performance. Staying calm after a difficult question or section is critical, as one challenging problem does not determine the overall score. Students who maintain focus, trust their preparation, and keep moving forward tend to perform more consistently. With practice, smart strategies, and confidence, students can approach both the ACT and SAT prepared to show what they know and reach their testing goals.

One of the benefits of working with Test Prep Chicago on ACT and SAT Prep is that our material includes practicing and reviewing test-taking strategies for each section seen on both exams. Our practice tests also include mindset reflections for questions that students answered incorrectly, helping them to understand exactly what errors are preventing them from getting question types correctly and providing them with strategies to help them improve.
