150 Points in 10 Hours

150 Points in 10 Hours

Background#

Stuck in a rut, Simon didn’t know where to start with improving his SAT score, so he joined our 10 Hour SAT Camp. In that short amount of time, we saw a +150 Points increase in his score!

The Strategy#

Simon began by taking our SAT Diagnostic Test, which we provide students who struggle to understand their strengths and weaknesses. This is a particularly important part of the process to make efficient and effective use of time with a personally-tailored plan. From there, he benefited from understanding the broader strokes of the format, such as the various question types that comprise each section. Taking a step back like this to ‘study the test not only the content’ provided Simon confidence in his abilities as a test-taker and made a huge difference!
