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!

Breaking IB Geography into smaller pieces worked much better for me. 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. I became much more comfortable asking questions in class. I went into the exam much calmer than I would have before. Thanks to everyone who supported me.
Jasmine Hawke
- IB Diploma
I finally understood what was going wrong in Extended Essay (EE). Knowing what to study reduced a lot of the stress.
Pablo Mota
- IELTS Academic
The feedback I received on Writing Task 1 was clear and practical. By the end of each lesson, I knew what I was supposed to do during the week. It took time to stop worrying about mistakes in speaking practice, but the lessons felt relaxed. After a while, the questions started to feel much more familiar. My mock results gradually became more consistent. Thank you to my tutor and the TestPrep team.
Buse Celik
- ACT
I wasn't starting from zero, but the same mistakes kept showing up in my mocks. Breaking Optional Writing into smaller pieces worked much better for me. By the end of each lesson, I knew what I was supposed to do during the week. I learned not to spend the same amount of time on every line of a long text. After a while, the questions started to feel much more familiar. Thank you to my tutor and the TestPrep team.
Hilal Bilgin
- LNAT
Our child wasn't sure how to organize the preparation for LNAT. The tutor's calm approach helped protect motivation during the intensive period. Online lessons made it possible to continue without losing time on travel. Flexible scheduling helped during a demanding school year. We were happy with both the teaching and the communication.
Orla Spencer
- Digital SAT
Preparation looked calmer and more organized closer to the exam. We would recommend the program to students and families in a similar situation.
Matteo Marino
- PTE Academic
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.
Harper Connelly
- AP Exams
At the beginning, we knew very little about the AP Exams system as parents. A realistic plan for the final weeks reduced stress for the whole family. We thank the tutor and the TestPrep team.
Luka Lund
- IB Diploma
What annoyed me most was losing easy points because I rushed. By the end of each lesson, I knew what I was supposed to do during the week. Balancing Quant and Verbal in the same week worked better than studying them in blocks. Thanks to everyone who supported me.
Agustin Quezada
- IGCSE / GCSE
I wasn't starting from zero, but the same mistakes kept showing up in my mocks. My confidence improved along with the results.
Skye OBrien
- PTE Academic
Communication with the team was straightforward and our questions were answered. The overall experience was positive from beginning to end.
Pranav Kulkarni
- IMAT
I was close to my target, but my results changed a lot from one test to the next. During the intensive review, we returned to real gaps instead of restarting everything. I learned to make a short plan before starting a long response. We could make the workload lighter during busy weeks at school or university. We were realistic about what could be improved in the time available. Thanks to everyone who supported me.
Ceren Gurbuz
- IGCSE / GCSE
Over time, IGCSE Mathematics became one of the most organized parts of my IGCSE / GCSE preparation. A quick check after each answer helped me catch small mistakes. After a while, the questions started to feel much more familiar.
Claire Maillard
- IMAT
Keeping up with IMAT while school was busy was harder than I expected. Even in a group lesson, the tutor knew where each of us stood. Knowing what to study reduced a lot of the stress. Thanks to everyone who supported me.
Niran Thongdee
- IELTS Academic
After the first attempt, we looked for a calmer plan for the retake. Online lessons made it possible to continue without losing time on travel. The overall experience was positive from beginning to end.
Jack Webster
- TOEFL iBT
It took time to stop worrying about mistakes in speaking practice, but the lessons felt relaxed. A big thank you to my tutor for all the support :)
Damian Arce
- IB Diploma
Once I understood the reasons behind the facts, the questions felt less random. I was really happy with the lessons.
Caleb Hawkins
- UCAT
The UCAT format felt unnecessarily confusing at first. When I got something wrong, we looked at why I chose that answer instead of only checking the solution. Practicing in the real exam format made test day feel much less unfamiliar. I was really happy with the lessons.
Isabela Cuellar
- LNAT
Over time, Reading Comprehension became one of the most organized parts of my LNAT preparation. I became much more comfortable asking questions in class.
Imogen Tierney
- LSAT
After my first attempt, I wanted a calmer and more focused plan for the retake. I'm glad I worked with my tutor through this process.
Wyatt Barrett
- GMAT Focus
Balancing GMAT Focus preparation with university and work was harder than I expected. After enough examples of the same question type, the repeated mistakes decreased. Discussing why the other choices were wrong helped more than I expected. By the end of each lesson, I knew what I was supposed to do during the week. Thank you to the tutor who stayed supportive until the end.
Alice Baxter
- SSAT
Having the lesson move at my pace made the process feel much easier. I finally understood what was going wrong in Upper Level. There was no overnight miracle, but the progress was easy to see. Thank you to my tutor and the TestPrep team.
Riley Porter
- AP Exams
I was taking AP Physics 2 at school, but getting used to the exam questions took time. We didn't spend extra time on things I already knew. I became much more careful with graphs, experiments and data-based questions. I started tracking the type of mistake, not just the number of questions I completed. Thank you to my tutor and the TestPrep team.
Marleen Willems
- IB Diploma
Keeping up with IB Diploma while school was busy was harder than I expected. Going back to the lesson recordings helped when I forgot a small step. A quick check after each answer helped me catch small mistakes. Thank you to my tutor and the TestPrep team.
