Review counselingWhat changes with better guidance
- Students stop guessing what matters next and work from a concrete plan.
- Families get a steadier process with fewer deadline surprises.
- Applications become more coherent because testing, academics, writing, and positioning are managed together.
What AcerLogic does not do
- We do not rely on shallow prestige messaging or one-size-fits-all college lists.
- We do not replace the student voice in essays or applications.
- We do not treat test prep as a bag of tricks detached from actual skill-building.
Diagnostic view
A calmer, more disciplined way to handle admissions and testing.

Founder authority
Meet Brian Bills
Three decades in test preparation and admissions strategy.
Direct founder involvement from first conversation through execution.
UCLA (B.A. and J.D.)Morrison & Foerster LLP30+ years in educationLOSD School Board member
Brian Bills has been working with students and families on test preparation and college admissions since 1992, when he founded his first prep program as an undergraduate at UCLA. That program became the highest-rated SAT prep in West Los Angeles. The University of California Regents retained him to develop admissions counseling and test prep programs for prospective students. A Los Angeles YMCA hired him to build theirs.
Brian earned his B.A. in International Relations and Political Science from UCLA and his J.D. from the UCLA School of Law. After law school, he practiced corporate finance and international law at Morrison & Foerster, one of the world's premier law firms. He left to return to education permanently, founding AcerLogic Educational Services in 2004.
That legal training still shapes how he works: diagnostic reasoning, structured strategy, evidence over intuition. Families work directly with Brian from the first conversation through the actual work. There is no handoff to junior staff, no inflated process, and no generic playbook.
Brian serves on the Lake Oswego School District Board of Directors, where he co-founded the district's AI Learning Community and authored the board's policy on AI use in education. He is a board member of the Maurice Lucas Foundation.
