The ACT is now 125 minutes long, with the Composite Score based on English, Math, and Reading only. Science and Writing are optional.
Neither test is objectively harder. The best pick depends on the student’s strengths. The ACT is now shorter and offers optional Science; the SAT has a different (adaptive) format. Diagnostic testing will determine the better fit. Know more
There’s no limit; however, taking more than 4 attempts is not recommended. Most learners take it twice for the best score, and Tutela’s program covers 2 attempts.
The average global score is ~21. Top universities look for 32+, while Ivy League admits often score between 34–35.
No preference. Both are equally accepted. Students should choose based on their strengths.
Turning journeys into stories that inspire us every day
I'd joined Tutela while I was preparing for my class 10 boards, starting off with classes just for English. In the span of a few weeks, I saw improvement both in testing and otherwise. With in-depth knowledge and expertise about the testing process, Tutela enabled me to improve my test scores and test-taking skills with the help of teachers who personally connected with and supported the students. Practice is the key to success. This is something which is taken very seriously at Tutela, with multiple tests and drills every week to refine concepts. It's a place which enables both reinforcement and comfort, so I'm glad to have studied at the institute to secure a great ACT score! Read More

Vasant Valley School, New Delhi, India
I highly recommend this coaching center. They had an extremely detailed and well-structured approach for my test preparation. Not only that, the teachers were very welcoming and comfortable to talk to. They would always arrange an extra class for coverups, doubt sessions whenever needed. Thanks to the entire team, I obtained my dream sat score. I enjoyed the entire experience (which is surprising to say for a tuition center?). Loved it! Read More

Pathways School, Gurgaon, Haryana, India
I started SAT preparation with Tutela a few months before my exam, and during the time when I prepared, I learnt a lot of tips and tricks that were essential to crack the exam. Tutela's endless resources and personalised classes, along with the paper reviewing sessions, really force you to stop making mistakes and propel you to the score that will get you into your dream school. For someone who is not good at self studying for an exam this vast and important, I would recommend at least trying it out- the difference in your scores and your confidence is definitely worth it!

Tutela has helped me prepare for IB, the SAT, and SAT Subject Tests. The teachers are knowledgeable and really try to focus on the needs of each student, and make every class an extremely fun experience. They are experienced and have been successful in their endeavors for years now, primarily due to their extensive list of resources. I don't even have a shred of doubt in my mind that Tutela has helped me academically succeed ever since I joined. Read More

I attended Tutela for about 3 months. Their welcome was very positive and they take every student as a challenge, working hard on their weaknesses. They pushed us to score better not by completing the curriculum early, but by making us understand the concepts. The teachers are devoted and they helped me at every step. They worked with me and guided me through the new online format. Due to their dedication, I was able to prepare for the December attempt in such a short time and get a good score. I’m thankful to everyone at Tutela for their support. Read More

Pathways School, Aravali, Haryana, India
The teachers will be there for you every step of the way - they are the most compassionate and smartest people you will meet. I have had the pleasure of working with Ashish and Prashansa. Their teaching methods have allowed me to achieve an ACT score that I had previously only dreamt of. Although I have never been to the tutoring center or met the teachers in person (I am an International student), I could tell from our google meets calls that they are truly genuine and passionate about teaching. Outside of class, they quickly responded to my questions through whatsapp and tried their best to arrange extra classes.Tutela's service is truly one of a kind. With them, the sky's the limit.

American Embassy School, New Delhi, India
The informal, accepting atmosphere combined with the rigorous academic schedule at Tutela allowed me to successfully embrace the challenging standardized tests. The teachers, who communicated not only syllabus but also test-taking skills, accommodated my learning style and worked around my other commitments. Walk into Tutela with the expectation that you will be guided and nurtured (and partake in loads of Marvel and Food-based conversations), not merely tutored. Read More
