The SAT Success Course is our most popular option, having served nearly 5000 students since 1998. The course delivers comprehensive preparation for all sections of the test – Reading, Writing & Language, and Math. The course covers important strategies, reviews tested math and verbal concepts, and provides hundreds of real SAT practice problems. Students can reinforce what they’ve learned with weekly homework and full length diagnostic tests.
Private SAT Tutoring works well for students that need a personalized prep program. Private tutoring can focus just on student’s weakest areas and works well for students that have busy schedules, since private tutoring is offered Sunday through Thursday. It also is a go-to choice for students who have unequal scores in the math and verbal sections. We recommend private tutoring for students starting with very high scores and students that might need more instruction on academic content than is provided in the class. Students can schedule 6 to 16 or more private hours, and a director can help families pick the best package based on amount of prep needed, sections of the test to cover, and time to SAT test date.
