Aiming for 750 - 800 in SAT Verbal? Our next AIMING FOR 800 course is coming up!
Shortcuts for math problems that stump 95% of test-takers.
Techniques for uncovering hidden clues that instantly reveal the main idea in lengthy reading passages.
Strategies for identifying and eliminating even the sneakiest trap answers.
Methods for remaining poised under pressure, an indispensable skill when it comes to the three-hour ACT.
“ACT Science was so hard for me before the class. I used to run out of time from spending so much time trying to figure out the confusing tables and charts. Now I know how to break down all the info and what the questions are really asking. Also, I liked how you explained how to do the 10 hardest math problems. I’m not nervous about the test any more.”
“Andrew spent last summer taking an ACT course and said he learned a thousand times more in one weekend with you than in two months of that course. I was worried he wouldn’t be able to focus for an online class, but he never complained and even laughed a few times. Kudos to whoever the teacher was. You kept him fully engaged.”
“I got a 33 in Math and a 35 in Reading. Thank you!”
“Thank you so much. I had no idea what to do for my Common App or supplements and kept writing drafts that I wasn’t happy with. You helped me understand what admissions officers look for when they read students’ personal statements and how I had a unique story to tell. I’m positive my essays helped me get into Brown, and I feel much more confident in my writing ability now than I did before. Thank you!”
We calculate score improvement data based on the difference between students’ starting scores (official exam scores that are shared with us) and students’ end scores (official exam scores after students complete our program). We segment score improvement data based on starting score range, because students who start at, say, a 33 on the ACT can only improve up to three points, while students whose starting scores are in the low 20s can have much more dramatic improvements.
Students whose starting scores range from 20 to 23, inclusive, improve an average of 6 points.
Students whose starting scores range from 24 to 27, inclusive, improve an average of 4 points.
Students whose starting scores range from 28 to 31, inclusive, improve an average of 3 points.
And students whose starting scores range from 32 to 35, inclusive, improve an average of 1 point.
Absolutely! We strongly encourage participation and create a welcoming, supportive class environment from the outset. Students simply type their questions and send them to us via a chat box. All questions are private, so students can feel secure asking anything they would like without having to feel in any way self-conscious.
Both. For example, when we cover tricky SAT algebra problems, we make sure students understand the math concepts underlying those problems, and then we teach them shortcuts and strategies, including tips for avoiding sneaky trap answers.
We have a wide range of students who participate in our SAT Boot Camp, from students looking for an on-ramp to the prep process to students looking for that final edge right before the big test.
We calculate score improvement data based on students’ starting scores from official exams (shared with us) and students’ official SAT scores after they have completed our Boot Camp (also shared with us). We then segment that data according to starting score ranges, because a student starting at, say, a 1450 can’t improve more than 150 points.
Students whose starting scores range from 1000 to 1150, inclusive, improve an average of 240 points.
Students whose starting scores range from 1160 to 1300, inclusive, improve an average of 170 points.
Students whose starting scores range from 1310 to 1450, inclusive, improve an average of 130 points.
And students whose starting scores range from 1450 to 1550, inclusive, improve an average of 80 points.
We cover every section the ACT—English, Math, Reading, and Science—from strategies for tackling yawn-inducing Reading passages to shortcuts for math questions that stump the majority of test takers.
Both. For example, when we cover tricky ACT math problems, we make sure that students understand the underlying math concepts before teaching them strateges for cracking the problems in the minimum amount of time.
We’re not a mill with hundreds of instructors of varying abilities and track records. We don’t charge a premium for gifted, experienced instructors because all of our instructors are subject matter experts with an abiding passion for teaching. The vast majority of our instructors have graduated from the sort of colleges people proudly post on the rear window of their cars: Princeton, Yale, Dartmouth, Stanford, Columbia, MIT—and many more. However—and this is a really important however—we don’t view sterling academic credentials as equivalent to teaching ability. We interview and decline to hire plenty of brilliant people who can’t seem to explain even the simplest of concepts. Therefore, the number one trait we seek in instructors is the ability to teach: that unique combination of communication skills, emotional intelligence, and empathy that separates mere tutors from teachers who inspire students to fulfill their potential.
