The multiple-choice tests cover four skill areas: English, mathematics, reading, and science. The Writing Test, which is optional, measures skill in planning and writing a short essay.

Students are encouraged to take the ACT® test once in their junior year and again in their senior year in time to meet college and scholarship application deadlines.

What’s happened to those students who attended the JATC? We want to let you know! We are asking for all former JATC students to answer a few questions:

  1. What program did you complete at the JATC and when?
  2. What are you doing now?
  3. How did your experience at the JATC help you get where you are today?

Keep it simple, make it fun, keep in touch by sending your response to now@jatc-wj.org . If you feel inspired, please send us a photo of yourself. With your permission, we would like to use these in our marketing as we speak to potential students and their parents.
