The Audible Contrast Threshold (ACT™) test is the quickest method to accurately measure a person's ability to hear in noisy environments. Developed by the Interacoustics Research Unit, ACT™ uses a non-linguistic, contrasting stimulus to provide a personalized testing experience. The results offer objective data that directly guides hearing aid fitting by predicting aided speech-in-noise performance. In this session, originally part of the 2024 Future of Hearing Healthcare conference, Dr. Ashley Hughes will explain the research behind the ACT™ test, demonstrate how to perform it, and interpret the results. Additionally, she will discuss how these results can inform hearing aid recommendations and setting adjustments. For the full experience, we highly recommend watching the video on YouTube: https://youtu.be/E3iGJ7JBTHw For those interested, a Q&A on the ACT™ test can be viewed here: https://hearinghealthmatters.org/hear-in-private-practice/2023/audible-contrast-threshold-test-audiology/ Be sure to subscribe to our YouTube channel for the latest episodes each week, and follow This Week in Hearing on LinkedIn and X (formerly Twitter): https://www.linkedin.com/company/this-week-in-hearing/ https://twitter.com/WeekinHearing

Chad Cargill’s ACT Test Prep Podcast Episode 1 – Chad’s Story and the 1-2-3 Plan Chad’s Story Chad comes from a simple home. He went to his mom's high school graduation, and his dad lugged boxes in a grocery warehouse for 30 years. His parents had not saved any money for college since it really wasn't expected. Chad's dad told him he would have to get a job and attend the local junior college. During high school Chad knew he needed to win scholarships in order to attend Oklahoma State University. Chad's freshman year in high school, he discovered many scholarships were based on ACT scores, and the journey began. He took the ACT a total of 18 times in high school raising his score 13 points from a 19 to a 32 which placed him in the scoring in the 99.5 percentile. This increase was simply due to him learning what was on the test and how to take it. Chad says, "The same people make the test every time. It’s the same opponent every time you play the game. They put the same things on every test. They just change the words and numbers.” After graduating high school, Chad went back to his high school to tell some of the students what he learned taking the test those 18 times. When the results of those students' tests were very positive, the counselor asked if he would come back to tell more students. After a few cycles helping students at his alma-mater, other schools began hearing about the workshop. Chad began giving workshops when he could get away from class. After graduation, Chad worked five years as an engineer for Lucent Technologies while giving workshops in the evenings and weekends. Now in his 28th year, Chad travels full-time across the country giving his workshop. Each year Chad speaks at high schools in Oklahoma, Arkansas, Texas, Missouri, Kansas, Nebraska, and Iowa. He has spoken to over 200,000 students and sold over 40,000 copies of his test prep book Chad Cargill’s ACT. Chad lives in Choctaw, Oklahoma with his wife Shellie and their 8 kids Camden (20), Cayce (18), Clarity and Creed (both 11 from the Democratic Republic of Congo), Cai (10 from Uganda), Carli and Crosby (both 8 from Uganda), and Cat (6 months adopted as a frozen embryo). The 1-2-3 Plan -Students are limited to 12 ACT tests. -If you can afford it, students should take all 12. 1 – Sophomore Year: Take one national ACT test your sophomore year. This should be either the December or April test. You can order the test questions, your answers, and the correct answers. Don’t study for this test. Give your best effort and see what happens. 2 – Junior Year: Take the December national ACT and either the April or June national ACT. Order the test both times. Start identifying weakness areas and practicing. 3 – Senior Year: Take the September, October, and December national ACTs. These first three test scores can be used on most scholarships since they will be before most scholarship deadlines. -If you want to take an ACT your freshman year without actually paying for it and using one of your twelve tests, administer one by yourself or with a group of friends. -I don’t recommend the Duke Talent Search 7th grade ACT. You can download a recent national ACT test provided free of charge from ACT. Just Google search Preparing for the ACT Test pdf ACT .org. The scoring chart and correct answers are in the back of the booklet. I’d love to connect with you and keep you posted on upcoming episodes and resources.

We live in a society where most people hate tests with the same intensity they love sports. Would this stark dichotomy exist if the many parallels between the two challenges were more widely known? Amy and Mike invited test prep professional Tony Miglio to describe how test prep and sports are similar.  What are five things you will learn in this episode? Why do sports analogies make so much sense when we talk about test prep? Why is motivation so important in both endeavors? What does the concept of muscle memory have to do with testing? Why can mistakes be meaningful in the prep process? How does coaching make a massive difference in both tests and sports? MEET OUR GUEST Tony Miglio is the owner of NKY Tutoring (https://nkytutoring.com/) and is a nationally sought-after test prep expert, specializing in the math section of the ACT Test.    He has worked with students both locally in the Greater Cincinnati area, but also students throughout the US and Europe.

Tony holds a Bachelor of Science degree in Education with a minor in Psychology from Northern Kentucky University.   Tony is a former teacher, and he has been an ACT tutor for more than 15 years, with the last 10 years specializing in helping students conquer and raise their Math ACT Scores.   His specialty is customizing the mental approach for each student, based upon their score that they need to drive success on the test. Last year, he quit his previous job to be a full-time standardized test tutor and focus on helping students all over the country.   Being full time allows him to meet with students throughout the day as well as travel across the US, to work with schools. This flexibility has provided Tony the opportunity to make a work with more students and make a positive impact in their lives.
