Prep Expert Is A Gamechanger

The classes provided many helpful tips that helped me a lot in the SAT. I have never felt more confident to take the test. The teachers utilize the time and the website provides the best resources to improve your overall score.

Prep expert is no joke!

This was by far some of the best teaching I’ve received. I was taught lessons and strategies that have helped me in ways I couldn’t imagine, it’s such simple tips that lead to such major improvements in my score and I’m so grateful for Shaan Patel and all the great teaching he gave to me

LOVED THIS CLASS!

My SAT class with Dr. Shaan Patel was an absolute game-changer. His deep knowledge of the test and engaging teaching style made every lesson not only informative but fun. The strategies he provided were incredibly valuable, and his ability to break down complex concepts made them easy to grasp. Thanks to his personalized approach, I saw my SAT score soar from a 1020 to a 1550—an improvement I never imagined possible. Dr. Patel’s enthusiasm and expertise made all the difference, and I couldn't be more grateful for the impact he had on my score and my overall test-taking confidence.

The classes are very good, the package sucks

The classes are very good and my son like it. It will definitly improve his skills and score. My son done the exam before and he will do it after and I will be able to tell how much improvemnt he really get in a month or two. As far as the package. My son thinks he doesn't need tutoring, so it was a waist of our money (as a package) so before you purchase a package think twice! I try to use other services instead of tutoring and they refuse which is a bommer. Anyway, the classes are good, the package sucks!

PrepExpert Review

Miguel was a great teacher. He really made me understand most of the material. He did go a bit quick, but I learned a lot about how to properly take the SAT. Granted, my math score might not improve much. But, I have still improved a lot, especially on my reading and writing. Looking forward to taking the real SAT! PrepExpert helped me improve!

PrepExpert Experience

PrepExpert has truly changed the way that I approach SAT questions and improved my score greatly. I started with a 1320 and now my score has gone up to a 1580! The instructor’s are great and I 10/10 recommend to anyone taking the SAT in the future.

The experience was great

The experience was great! There was alot of homework which i know helps increase your score, but if you’re involved in other activities it’s hard to keep up. In my opinion the classes were a little long (mine was 3 hours) but they gave us breaks and it was a good experience overall!

Prep Expert is 100% Worth It!

Prep Expert seriously changed the game for me. Before the class, my SAT scores were stuck, and no matter how much I studied on my own, I wasn’t improving. After taking the course, I raised my score by over 300 points — which still feels unreal to say.

A huge part of that was thanks to my instructor, Isabella Raicu. She explained everything so clearly, shared strategies that actually worked, and made the class way more engaging than I expected. She kept me motivated the whole time and gave me the confidence I needed going into test day.

If you’re a student who feels like you’ve hit a wall with your studying, Prep Expert is 100% worth it. I went from stressed and unsure about my score to proud of what I accomplished.

Prep Expert & Isabella Raicu

My teacher, Isabella Raicu, was so helpful in answering questions and went through all her lessons concisely. If anyone during her instruction had a question, she would ensure that the student fully understood her explanation before she moved on. The company provides a variety of helpful tools that I have seen very useful in my review. The most impactful tool has been the office hours sessions. I can ask for the tutor to review as many questions as I need, or 2 hours, which I've also found very helpful. Thank you, PrepExpert, for the new strategies and tools you've provided me with to earn a high score on my SAT!

PrepExpert 6-week SAT Course Feedback

I had a really great 6-week course with Taylor on PrepExpert. The way the tutor explained all the PrepExpert strategies and implemented them into college board questions to show how to use the strategies was greatly helpful. Now regarding the PrepExpert course material: it could get any better. There were 6 practice tests that had collegeboard questions and 20 practice test that had collegeboard equivalent SAT questions on the test. The addition of the hard math quizzes and vocabulary kept a real good balance between Reading&Writing as well as math. I would definitely recommend PrepExpert to another friend!
