“College Prep Genius DVD set has quickly become an invaluable program to us. My daughter has already learned tips & tricks that I know will help her on her SAT. The critical thinking and time management skills will, undoubtedly, stay with her throughout her life, too. I know that you will appreciate this program as much as we have.”

“The author, Jean Burk, who thought of this awesome program is a total GENIUS!!!”
“We LOVED this! It was a VERY independent program to use, loaded with great tips and suggestions for preparing to take the PSAT or SAT test, giving not just great strategies for HOW to take the test, but it also a pretty extensive list of sites to look at for applying for scholarships, a chart of 300 math terms needed to take the test (as well as space for writing an example, checklists, vocabulary help, forms for taking practice tests and more…A fabulous resource, that is EXTREMELY HELPFUL, put together by a homeschool mom…I highly recommend College Prep Genius! I will be interested in seeing how my techy guy’s scores improve throughout the course of this program!”

“So with that being said, when he took his second SAT practice test after reading through the book one time, he improved his score by 200 points, WOW! I’m sold this works.”

As of late, my daughter has been trying to dodge her regular school work in order to work onCollege Prep Genius! She keeps telling me, “I can’t wait to take the SAT!” The funny thing? She’s only ten!

Can I just tell you how much I, the MOM, needed a program like this? Never mind how much my Junior and Senior in High School need it… I really needed it!
A Teaching Heart – http://ateachingheart.com/2011/11/11/take-the-mystery-out-of-all-those-high-school-tests/
This is a VERY INSTRUCTIVE curriculum! It is easy to understand and the hints and tips have been extremely helpful. I am thoroughly enjoying this class. You can apply the methods taught to just about any test. It teaches you to think objectively and organize your thoughts to solve problems efficiently.

I’m gushing, aren’t I? Well, if you stumbled upon the golden ticket that would silence your only fear of keeping your children home through high school, you might be gushing too. College Prep Genius is MY GOLDEN TICKET.

I am VERY impressed with this curriculum, it’s very user friendly. My son took it and devoured it! He loved learning the “secrets” to the SAT…did you know it’s a logic test, not a test of what you know? I loved that it is an independent study by design.

I believe College Prep Genius is one of the best resources (if not the best) available for preparing a student to take the SAT… Jean Burk teaches the best way to study for the SAT is to study the test itself. Learning the tips, tricks, and shortcusts to the test will help ensure that a student can make it through the whole test without wasting time on unnecessary steps.

This is WAY better than a thick boring book! The lessons are not boring and there is a lot of practical information, not just facts to memorize. We have been very impressed and so glad to have found such a valuable tool!!
Kamga Academy – http://homeschoolblogger.com/kmgadmom/777932/
The ability to problem solve, to read carefully and follow instructions is a vital skill that many people don’t ever learn. You are absolutely learning skills that you will be able to use far beyond the SAT.
Ramblings of the Blonde MotherBear – http://homeschoolblogger.com/blondie/778767/
This is a student-friendly course, each lesson can be paced to the student; viewed repetitively or not. The author, Jean Burk, is an outstanding instructor. Her enthusiasm for SAT Prep Success is irresistible!
Knee Deep in Grace – http://kneedeepingrace.com/2011/11/free-college-sat-prep/
This program is really packed with helpful information. I really do mean packed. I am glad that we are looking at it before we actually need to use it. I really think it will help us prepare in a non-stressful way, to do well on the PSAT and SAT, because we will be able to do everything in small, bite-sized pieces instead of trying to cram it in during D-man’s junior year of high school.
Shut The Fridge – http://shutthefridge.blogspot.com/2011/11/do-you-have-to-be-genius-to-do-college.html
Wowzers! College Prep Genius is an awesome tool to help with SAT/PSAT tests. My oldest daughter, Marie is just beginning her high school journey and this book is proving invaluable in preparing her.
A Stable Beginning – http://astablebeginning.blogspot.com/2011/11/collegeprepdvdset.html
After the first lesson my son had taken an online SAT and set up a college prep binder, made sure he was signed up for college board emails…and maybe more he didn’t tell me. Something clicked for him.
Faith, Family and Fun – http://faithfamilyandfun.com/college-prep-genius-review/
This course is a fantastic deal, and any student looking towards college should at least consider it. I would have done far better on the SAT had this material been available to me. At the very least, I would have felt more confident and comfortable with the process. That alone would have been worth something.
Footprints in the Butter – http://debrakb.blogspot.com/2011/11/review-sat-prep-course.html
Along with thorough explanations of how the PSAT and SAT work including all three test sections, this set has hundreds of tips and shortcuts. You’ll learn about college interview and scholarship information too!… Alyssa has been soaking up the information in College Prep Genius like a sponge, and she likes the way the lessons are taught. We don’t have her PSAT score back yet, but my guess is that she will do much better on the SATs after using this program. She plans to spend several months going over the information repeatedly to get the best score possible. As a Mom, I am thrilled with College Prep Genius!
The Loose Screw – http://athena-theloosescrew.blogspot.com/2011/11/curriculum-review-college-prep-genius.html
I can’t say enough good things about teaching test taking strategies! This is especially important when taking tests like the SAT because they are developed with intentional critical thinking tricks that trip up most students. When your student understands how to breakdown these tricks and identify the real requirements of a given problem, he/she will be much more successful…I’m excited to have this program! I have two more boys to get into college, and we will certainly use this process to help them be successful on their tests.
