Test Preparation Program
Our first step in standardized test preparation is to determine each child's learning style and needs. We then hand-select a qualified test prep tutor who will best suit the student's personality and the determined content areas. Our curriculum for most standardized test prep packages starts with a full practice test, administered at our office under standardized conditions.
We provide each test prep tutor with a thorough analysis of the results that enables him or her to focus on areas in greatest need of improvement. Once a student has completed 80% of his or her prep, we administer a final diagnostic test that allows us to troubleshoot last minute issues. Sessions in our prep packages are all 1 1/2 hours long.
Our research into students' pre and post SAT scores reveal:
-80% of students receiving 12-15 sessions of direct test prep instruction increase an average of 100 points on the SAT
-80% of students receiving 7 sessions or less of direct test prep instruction increase an average of 50 points on the SAT
