The Honors Review course consists of three computerized model tests, foundation summary and exercises, and personalized instruction with our well trained SAT instructors.

Many colleges use the Subject Tests for admission, course placement, and to advise students about course selection. Your test scores, along with other background information, are a good predictor of future performance in college, so it is important to perform well on them. If you are planning on taking the Math IIC, our program provides comprehensive content review from our professional instructors, as well as plenty of problems to master test-taking strategies that will ensure your highest possible score.

During class time, there is a focus on explaining solutions to practice problems. It is important that students encounter and learn to tackle as many different types of problems as possible to be able to recognize short cuts and various methods to solve any problem that may show up on the actual exam. So while this course does include lectures on content, the most important thing is that students get many practice problems for homework and get detailed explanations of the best ways to solve them. This thoroughly prepares them to perform their best and achieve their highest possible scores on the actual exams.

In this class your child will be taking SAT practice tests every week. One of the many problems students have with the SAT is that they are not good test-takers: they are not good at thinking critically under pressure and time constraints. They freeze up, draw blanks, reread the directions to make sure they know what they have to do in that section, etc. Getting accustomed to not only the SAT’s material, but also the experience of taking such a test and its format will help keep a student’s mind clear, focused, and confident on the day of the test. Thus, this class will both improve your child’s knowledge of the material the SAT covers and improve his or her test-taking ability.
