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!

Keeping school units and exam preparation in the same plan worked really well. The feedback I received on IB Business Management was clear and practical. I found a better balance between regular school and exam preparation. Thank you to the tutor who stayed supportive until the end.
Ishita Joshi
- Digital SAT
At the beginning, we knew very little about the Digital SAT system as parents. Individual lesson time was used around our child's actual needs. The tutor supported regular study, not only the lesson content. A good connection with the tutor developed quite quickly. We quickly felt that the tutor was a good match.
Trevor Foster
- IGCSE / GCSE
I was taking IGCSE Computer Science at school, but getting used to the exam questions took time. My tutor usually asked me to explain my thinking before stepping in. My written code answers became much more organized. I was really happy with the lessons.
Bea Santos
- IGCSE / GCSE
I finally understood what was going wrong in IGCSE Accounting. My case responses became more organized and direct. After a while, the questions started to feel much more familiar.
Nana Tamura
- IB Diploma
Over time, IB Global Politics became one of the most organized parts of my IB Diploma preparation. When I got something wrong, we looked at why I chose that answer instead of only checking the solution. I learned to make a short plan before starting a long response. There was no overnight miracle, but the progress was easy to see. I became much more comfortable asking questions in class. It was an intense period, but it was worth it.
Oliver Rawson
- IGCSE / GCSE
Our child wasn't sure how to organize the preparation for IGCSE / GCSE. Including assignments and internal exams made the plan sustainable. It was good to see confidence returning over time. A good connection with the tutor developed quite quickly. We thank the tutor and the TestPrep team.
Trevor Grady
- AP Exams
When I started preparing for AP Exams, I wasn't sure what order to study things in. Full-length mocks helped me get used to the real exam pace. Past-paper questions showed me how different topics could appear together. I started tracking the type of mistake, not just the number of questions I completed. It was an intense period, but it was worth it.
Martin Santillan
- AP Exams
I finally understood what was going wrong in AP Physics C: Mechanics. My confidence improved along with the results.
Joaquin Cuevas
- ACT
The ACT format felt unnecessarily confusing at first. I stopped doing a huge amount one week and nothing the next. I can now decide much faster when to move on from a question. It was an intense period, but it was worth it.
Hugo Allard
- A-Level
I was taking A-Level Physics at school, but getting used to the exam questions took time. Experiencing the exam format beforehand made test day much less stressful. I became much more careful with graphs, experiments and data-based questions. My tutor usually asked me to explain my thinking before stepping in. Thank you to my tutor and the TestPrep team.
Santiago Godoy
- Digital SAT
Anxiety became more visible as the exam got closer. The overall experience was positive from beginning to end.
Angus Banfield
- Digital SAT
Timed work showed exactly which section was slowing me down. Thanks to TestPrep for helping me stay on track.
Lucas Silveira
- IB Diploma
The IB Diploma format felt unnecessarily confusing at first. I found a better balance between regular school and exam preparation.
Mariana Tavares
- A-Level
Our daughter needed regular support with A-Level Sociology. The lessons started being followed without constant reminders from us. We would recommend the program to students and families in a similar situation.
Grant Benson
- A-Level
I understood that the portfolio needed to show the process, not only the finished piece. I'm genuinely thankful to my tutor for being patient.
Jimena Rosales
- IMAT
What annoyed me most was losing easy points because I rushed. I started tracking the type of mistake, not just the number of questions I completed. Knowing the topic wasn't always enough; I had to learn which information the question actually needed. I was really happy with the lessons.
Daeun Pyo
- SSAT
After the first attempt, we looked for a calmer plan for the retake. Seeing the change in our child made us very happy.
Sergio Caldeira
- Digital SAT
The lessons started being followed without constant reminders from us. Flexible scheduling helped during a demanding school year. We thank the tutor and the TestPrep team.
Efe Sari
- Digital SAT
As the exam got closer, I wasn't sure what I should actually review. I'm genuinely thankful to my tutor for being patient.
Ivan Haugen
- IB Diploma
Breaking IB Chemistry into smaller pieces worked much better for me. Separating calculation errors from content gaps made revision more useful. After a while, the questions started to feel much more familiar.
Alba Tavares
- IGCSE / GCSE
When I started preparing for IGCSE / GCSE, I wasn't sure what order to study things in. My tutor could see my reasoning and usually found the source of an error quickly. Balancing Quant and Verbal in the same week worked better than studying them in blocks. I started tracking the type of mistake, not just the number of questions I completed. Having the lesson move at my pace made the process feel much easier. A big thank you to my tutor for all the support :)
Jules Delorme
- LSAT
The feedback I received on Logical Reasoning was clear and practical. Going back to the lesson recordings helped when I forgot a small step. I stopped choosing answers by feel and started looking for evidence in the passage. Knowing what to study reduced a lot of the stress. My preparation became much more regular and easier to track. I'm genuinely thankful to my tutor for being patient.
Camila Montoya
- A-Level
Over time, A-Level Further Mathematics became one of the most organized parts of my A-Level preparation. A quick check after each answer helped me catch small mistakes. I left the exam feeling that I had done what I could.
Evie Whitlam
- YÖS / TR-YÖS
Seeing several versions of the same topic made unfamiliar questions less stressful. I'm glad I worked with my tutor through this process.
