SAT Prep Success Stories

Walt Whitman is credited with saying, "It you done it, it ain't bragging." 

With that in mind, I share some of our recent success stories at CROSSWALK. Both of these stories deal with SAT prep and both deal with private students at CROSSWALK
Walt Whitman

The first story is about a senior in high school taking the SAT for the last time. After doing little preparation before the first time he took the test, this student scored well on the math and critical reading sections. However, he faltered on the writing and was disappointed in his score of 560. 

After just four laser sessions with specific practice on writing, he raised his score to a 700. This is what the father sent us in an email: 

"He did well on his writing section--he increased his score from a 560 to a 700. Combined his SAT is now in the 2200+ range. He is awaiting answers from colleges. Thanks. Your tutor did well." 

The second story is even more interesting. It is about a young woman who had already started in college but decided to transfer to another school. Tasked with taking the SAT again, she had a goal of increasing her score by 200 points. Making matters more difficult, she only had a couple of weeks to prepare for the exam so she crammed in four private sessions in just one week. 

Despite the challenges, the results were excellent. Her mother called us to share the following: 

"We are so happy. She increased her score by 250 points. You did a great job! Thanks so much. I wish we would have contacted you years ago!" 

So forgive the bragging, but someone has to toot CROSSWALK's horn. And after all, per Mr. Whitman, "if you done it, it ain't bragging."
