GetAFive, Elmhurst

GetAFive helps young scholars achieve the coveted top score on their AP exams with easy-to-use online resources, from diagnostics and study materials to practice versions of the main event. After a quick assessment zeros in on what areas students most need to study, pupils train with more than 150 practice questions, as well as a series of 15-minute online reviews led by a professional teacher.

Each of GetAFive's certified educators brings to the table decades of classroom experience and a mastery of his or her field. Equipped with the knowledge of these experts, as well as the peace of mind of completing an AP-style practice exam, students venture forth to dazzle college-admissions boards with impeccably argued American-history essays written with period-perfect sheepskin parchment and quills.
