Here’s What You’ll Get With College Prep Genius
College Prep Genius offers an award-winning, affordable test prep solution for college-bound students, potentially bringing opportunities that can change a student's life for years to come.
Scholarship Opportunities
Remember, 85% of colleges and universities offer entrance and scholarship money based on test scores. With a higher score, scholarship opportunities are increased. A high test score can extend financial opportunities as far as graduate school programs.
Confidence. No surprises on test day.
Stress and anxiety are key distractions when taking standardized tests. But when students are able to properly prepare, their confidence increases. Knowing what to expect on test day and how to attack it is essential to earning a great SAT and ACT score.
Increased Test Scores
College Prep Genius strategies are proven. Thousands of students have been able to increase their test scores because our program teaches students how to see the patterns, apply the correct strategies, eliminate wrong answer choices and answer in 30 seconds or less. Ultimately, that's the recipe for a high SAT or ACT score because every college takes either one. They are extremely similar and there is a crossover of information that works on both.
Stand out from the crowd.
Our program prepares students in a way that will give them the edge, many times needed, over their peers. A high test score takes work, but ultimately, with the right preparation, students can stand out from other applicants who did not put in the same work. (Many either don't know, wait too long or just don't want to do the work.) Because every school calculates GPAs differently, these scores level the playing field.
We've helped thousands of students.
Here's what they have to say.
