I am planning on taking a SAT prep course. I am trying to chose between the Elite Educational Institute and the Excel Test Prep. Can someone please tell me which one is better at preparing its students for the SAT? It would be really helpful if you could also include the prices for each session for each program.
Or you can tell me another program that’s better than these two.
An IQ test presumably measures inherent intelligence, and the SAT was originally intended to do just that. An IQ test would eliminate unfair advantages gained from students who can afford expensive test prep. as well as those trained to do well on the test for years versus those who are too poor or too disadvantaged.
Opinions?
I am fromt he U.S. and my question was not on whether I should send my IQ test scores to my colleges as well but more an opinion on whether an IQ test should be given over an SAT test from college admission XD. Moreover, some IQ tests test spatial intelligence (your interpretation of shapes etc.) and artistic intelligence as well. Also, athletic minds are judged already in admission when couches of top universities (or scoutss) sit in on some games of high school athletes as well as judging their athletic records.
bah some grammer errors* mmmm.
I’m trying to find good test prep for both the ACT and SAT. I have heard that Huntington and Sylvan have good programs but I do not know what the cost is, Could someone please tell me around how much it costs to do these programs and in your opinion which program is better.
I have a hard time learning from just books so I really need tutor of sorts. I already have a good score I just want a better one. I have a 28 and want a 31 at least 
i need another SAT II test… i took US History and Literature and my scores were acceptable… but i don’t have a third test… i’m thinking about Math II and Chemistry, but i won’t be ready until the end of the year and the last test date for my college is in Oct.
so is there a test that can be easily self taught?
also
why isn’t there free test prep for the SAT IIs like there is for the ACT/SAT?
Can anyone post a link to a Math Sat-10 Test Prep for Florida. I really need one. Best answer gets 10 points!
Has anyone taken the SAT/ACT prep courses at Sylvan Learning Center? or do you know anyone that has? I’m considering taking it over the summer, but I want to know if it’s worth my money. So, if anyone could enlighten me on how much they benefitted from the course, that would be much appreciated. Also, if you could name some other places/private tutors for test prep go right ahead! Tell me what you guys recommend! and any tips for SAT prepping and testing are also welcomed! lol.
Thank You!
Ever take your kid to Sylvan? An SAT test-prep or tutoring center? Are you a student/ former student yourself who didn’t have her/his learning needs met?
I have decided to start my own tutoring business. The thing is, I want the name to really POP and I want to know how to make students and parents feel comfortable and listened to. I intend to offer full service tutoring. 24 hour contact (in case he needs help on a late night cram session or project), text messaging to remind the student of any important assignments coming up, and even help dealing with difficult teachers and anything of service to my clients. But I need help figuring out the most crucial aspects of outstanding private tutoring. (I want my tutoring to be like the hotels that leave those savory dark chocolates atop perfectly fluffed pillows!)
No story or suggestion is too big or small! Just tell me–what do you wish you saw more often in tutors/test-prep agencies. I truly appreciate your comments and life stories!
I have an ipod nano 4th generation, and I just bought this SAT test prep game, and I can’t get it to download onto my ipod! Like..I can’t drag and drop it onto the place where the eject button is and the charging icon.
HELP?
I’m shopping for a couple of test prep books: SAT,ACT,PSAT,AP etc.
and i was wondering, if i buy a 2009 edition and the next year they release a 2010 edition AM I SCREWED?
I have to sign up for ACT, PSAT, and SAT test prep pretty soon. I’m leaning towards Kaplan but a lot of people recommend Princeton Review. The price doesn’t really matter and both classroom courses are around the same area (,000-,000). If there is anyone out there has used kaplan or princeton prep courses review for anything at all, pleeeeaaase help! I really don’t know which one to choose…open to any suggestions.
forgot to check my grammar before I posted…sorry.
Hi, Right now I’m going to go into senior year and my sat scores are sadly 1550 really average. I don’t plan on going to Ivys nor top schools. However I do want to make in a good reputable school in NY, where I am located. Right now, I’m contemplating whether I should take an expensive test prep called Testtakers 00 bucks! I don’t know if its worth it but i have heard alot of great results from classmates but I really don’t know if it is worth it!
Should I take an 00 course or will I regret not making that decision in my life? Deadline is really near. I just found out that it was 00 not the 50 that it use to be.
I do not want to try other programs because I know they suck. Kaplan and Princeton Review around my area isn’t good at all. I took Kaplan and it sucked like hell.

I went to barnes and nobles the other day…and i first took a look at THE OFFICIAL STUDY GUIDE to the sat and it gives out test prep. but it doesn’t explain the answer.
I also took at look at Barron and it was similar to KAPLAN….
i heard that Barron is more advance than what the SAT actually is…
Kaplan on the other hand it "underpreparing" as stated by others..
but i am considering Kaplan because it’s easy to follow..and the version that i saw had a CD which includes SAT coaching sessions from "Mel Robbins"
anyways..give me your opinions…?
i need a online sat bio test prep. they need to be legit sites and money is not an issue.
I took the SAT last Saturday (March 1st) and Im thinking of take it again. . I own The Official SAT Study Guide by collegeboard but I want to buy another one. (I have a 2.9 GPA)
Which one is better for the SAT test prep?
*Kaplan SAT 2008 Premier Program
*Cracking the SAT, 2008 Edition by Princeton Review
*How to Prepare for the SAT: 2007-2008 (Barron’s)
*Barron’s SAT 2400
Other?
