Before and After Results
Real score improvements from students in our SAT, AP, ACT and GMAT programs.
Detailed Case Studies
In-depth stories from our students who achieved outstanding results.
I was devastated after my first SAT attempt. The diagnostic test identified my weak points in Reading and Math, and my tutor created a focused plan. In 4 months I went up 240 points and got accepted to UCLA!
After trying other programs, TestPrep Istanbul finally worked. The personalized approach to Data Sufficiency and Critical Reasoning made all the difference. Now I'm doing my MBA at Wharton.
The Science section was my biggest weakness. My tutor taught me efficient data interpretation strategies. The small group format kept my motivation high and I went from 24 to 34!

I wasn't starting from zero, but the same mistakes kept showing up in my mocks. I started tracking the type of mistake, not just the number of questions I completed. Questions from other students often helped me as well. The writing feedback helped me stop repeating the same sentence-level errors. Knowing what to study reduced a lot of the stress. It was an intense period, but it was worth it.

I knew my target, but I didn't have a realistic routine for PTE Academic. Having the lesson move at my pace made the process feel much easier. It took time to stop worrying about mistakes in speaking practice, but the lessons felt relaxed. My tutor usually asked me to explain my thinking before stepping in. Lesson times could fit around school, university or work. I'm glad I worked with my tutor through this process.

We didn't spend extra time on things I already knew. Breaking Reading into smaller pieces worked much better for me. There was no overnight miracle, but the progress was easy to see. I'm glad I worked with my tutor through this process.
Mariel Tolentino

I had been studying alone, but my results stopped improving after a point. The class felt relaxed enough to ask questions without overthinking it. I left the exam feeling that I had done what I could. Thanks to TestPrep for helping me stay on track.

Our daughter needed regular support with Computer-Based Practice. It was good to see confidence returning over time. We would recommend the program to students and families in a similar situation.

Wesley Merritt

I was close to my target, but my results changed a lot from one test to the next. My tutor made it easy to ask questions from the first lesson. Lesson times could fit around school, university or work. I developed a clearer way to return to the text during reading questions. I became much more comfortable asking questions in class. Thanks to everyone who supported me.

Joining lessons willingly was one of the clearest signs for us. A good connection with the tutor developed quite quickly. Thank you sincerely to everyone involved.
Arianna Palmieri
- PTE Academic
Our child wasn't sure how to organize the preparation for PTE Academic. Preparation looked calmer and more organized closer to the exam. Mistakes became something to work on rather than something to feel bad about. Being able to fit lessons around school made the process easier. The lessons started being followed without constant reminders from us. We quickly felt that the tutor was a good match.

The PTE Academic format felt unnecessarily confusing at first. Having the lesson move at my pace made the process feel much easier. I learned not to lose the rest of a listening task because I missed one word. I started tracking the type of mistake, not just the number of questions I completed. Lesson times could fit around school, university or work. I was really happy with the lessons.

I was taking Computer-Based Practice at school, but getting used to the exam questions took time. By the end of each lesson, I knew what I was supposed to do during the week. Before coding, I began thinking about which structure actually fit the problem. I was really happy with the lessons.

Over time, Repeat Sentence became one of the most organized parts of my PTE Academic preparation. I learned not to lose the rest of a listening task because I missed one word. After a while, the questions started to feel much more familiar.
Hao Liu

I chose Listening this year and wanted to build a solid base from the beginning. By the end of each lesson, I knew what I was supposed to do during the week. The writing feedback helped me stop repeating the same sentence-level errors. Thanks to TestPrep for helping me stay on track.
