My experience at Glenview College Prep High School was very helpful to my college life. The school has prepared me through practice exams to succeed in the ACT and AP Exams. The success of my scores has demonstrated that the methods this school uses are, in fact, very successful.

The best part of attending Glenview College Preparatory was how prepared I was for the big tests like the ACT. However, the worst part was getting prepared for that big test.
