Anyone who has suffered through SAT prep courses knows that there has got to be a better way. Long hours at night school with hundreds of other kids, each with separate learning needs, are boring and expensive. Leveraging broadband video to connect students directly with a test prep expert, a Princeton expert has developed an online prep program that guarantee an increase in SAT scores. The program is based on a results-driven methodology with four steps: test, grade, review, and repeat. ePrep actually ships students physical SAT test booklets which the student takes under simulated conditions. The student then logs into their account to grade their tests and immediately launch into detailed review of missed or skipped problems. The review is one of the most important parts and eprep.com really comes through with excellent personalized, video lessons that show the student how to answer a question instead of simply telling them. The expert works out the problem on the same test booklet and pencil as the student. After the review, students will repeat the process and take another SAT practice test. In addition to SAT prep, there is also a program for the PSAT and interactive vocabulary building tool.
"Most online SAT preparation programs are merely repurposed books, giving students the burdensome, confusing, and often time consuming task of figuring out how each answer explanation relates to the execution of the problem and the process required to actually work out the answer. ePrep videos model problem solving in the very environment (i.e., same space, same pencil) that students will face on test day."
The teaching experts who designed the four-step methodology really know their audience; the program is ideal for high school students and personalized lessons might help keep them focused and motivated. Having the program available round the clock is very important and will give students a little slack during a very stressful time.
The program is available 24/7 but students will have to be highly self-motivated to stick with it. Is there a plan for motivation? Are the practice tests actual old versions of the SATs that have been administered? Are there plans to add a personal counselor for students who need extra help?
