Why ACT 21 matters

One number. A scholarship.

Tennessee’s HOPE Scholarship threshold is an ACT composite score of 21. Students who cross that line qualify for thousands of dollars in state aid toward college.

Peer Power Boot Camp students average a 2–3 point composite increase. That kind of movement, in four days, at $50 a day, is the most cost-effective intervention we know of.

What Happens Inside

This isn’t a cram session.

Three 80-minute sessions per subject, every day. Each session builds on the last: format overview + timing strategy, then a deep-dive into the hardest question types, then a full timed set with debrief. It’s the “I do / We do / You do” model — you leave knowing why the answer is what it is, not just that it is.

Session 1

Format overview + timing strategies + easy-tier practice questions. Build the map before you run the route.

Session 2

Strategy deep-dive on mid- and hard-tier question types. This is where the score moves.

Session 3

Full timed set + debrief. You see your time, your score, and exactly what to fix before test day.
