Prep Expert really helped me prepare for the SAT. I was self-studying before and wasn't seeing much progress. I didn’t really adhere to a super strict schedule, so it was helpful to have a set class time and homework each week. I liked the fact that each week we took a practice test because that made seeing progress much easier. My scores were ranging in the mid 1300s before and now they're closer to 1400-1500. I am aiming for the 1500s so I am happy with my progress. Kevin Parish is an amazing instructor, and I don't think I could have improved this much without him. You can tell how much he cares and how much time and energy he spends on the benefit of his students. Kevin does so much extra work that isn't required and is so helpful and kind. He gave some good tips on studying and prepping, which I appreciated greatly. Kevin also made me feel a lot more confident going into the test. I was worried that, like my previous scores, my current scores would remain stagnant, but his class helped put my mind at rest. Sometimes he would mention what he had been doing the past week for us and I would genuinely be shocked because he did so much extra work on top of also getting his PhD. There were many weeks when he had stayed up the night before gathering and testing various sample questions. With those sample questions, he would sort them out and carefully choose ones to test us on each day. Each lesson is engaging, and I don't find my attention straying off. The practice problems with polls were helpful for engagement and testing my knowledge of what we were learning. I have taken some other online math classes of similar format and ideas, but this Capstone class was better by far. Although 3 hours is a long time, especially on the weekends, the breaks and material made the classes go by. The 10-minute break ratio to 50 minutes of work seemed to be helpful and engaging. It was also useful to hear about Kevin's experience, not only on SAT but with college and scholarships. He had a lot of good insight into how to achieve high and prepare yourself for college and beyond. One of the most helpful components was the Dropbox file that Kevin made. It was useful to see how questions are ranked. Because they were sorted by difficulty, I could easily access the hardest problems or work my way up in sections I wanted to improve upon. Even after the course is done, I have so many useful resources at my disposal to improve my score. Overall, Kevin is an extremely kind person who goes miles above and beyond what is required of him. He is truly a one-of-a-kind person, teacher, and intellectual.
