Common Test Prep Questions

Everything you need to know before booking your diagnostic.

How much should my score improve?+
Most students see a 100-150 point SAT increase or 3-4 point ACT increase with consistent prep. High achievers often gain 50-80 points by refining strategy and eliminating careless errors. Your diagnostic test helps us set a realistic, personalized target.
When should I start preparing?+
Ideally 8-12 weeks before your first test date. This allows time for a full diagnostic, targeted skill building, multiple practice tests, and test-day simulation. We also offer 4-week intensive crash courses for last-minute prep.
Do you guarantee a score increase?+
While no ethical tutor can guarantee a specific score, we do guarantee a structured plan, expert instruction, and data-driven feedback. If you complete all assignments and attend sessions, you'll be fully prepared to maximize your score. We offer a session refund if you're unsatisfied with the first coaching cycle.
Can I prep for both SAT and ACT?+
Absolutely. The core math and reading skills overlap significantly. We'll assess your strengths and recommend which test may yield a higher composite, then tailor your plan accordingly. Many of our students take both to submit their best scores.
What materials are included?+
Every student gets access to official College Board/ACT practice tests, our proprietary strategy guides, video walkthroughs, a digital question bank, and a progress dashboard. No third-party workbooks required.
