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!

The feedback I received on IGCSE Combined Science was clear and practical. Separating calculation errors from content gaps made revision more useful. My mock results gradually became more consistent.
Emilia Becker
- TOEFL iBT
I was doing questions for Reading on my own but never had a steady routine. Thank you to the tutor who stayed supportive until the end.
Dylan Atkinson
- AP Exams
After the first attempt, we looked for a calmer plan for the retake. The lessons started being followed without constant reminders from us. Mistakes became something to work on rather than something to feel bad about. Topic-based question practice made study time more focused. A good connection with the tutor developed quite quickly. Seeing the change in our child made us very happy.
Joris VanDijk
- LSAT
Breaking Logical Reasoning into smaller pieces worked much better for me. Discussing why the other choices were wrong helped more than I expected. My mock results gradually became more consistent.
Astrid Ekstrom
- LNAT
At the beginning, we knew very little about the LNAT system as parents. We were able to follow the mock results regularly. Seeing the change in our child made us very happy.
Qianyu Lin
- SSAT
Our child had a clear goal but no steady study routine. Flexible scheduling helped during a demanding school year. Being able to fit lessons around school made the process easier. Joining lessons willingly was one of the clearest signs for us. A good connection with the tutor developed quite quickly. Seeing the change in our child made us very happy.
Saki Inoue
- LNAT
Breaking Section B Essay into smaller pieces worked much better for me. I went into the exam much calmer than I would have before.
Akari Miura
- Digital SAT
I was close to my target, but my results changed a lot from one test to the next. Questions from other students often helped me as well. Learning when to leave a hard question made a real difference to my timing. I stopped doing a huge amount one week and nothing the next. Thank you to the tutor who stayed supportive until the end.
Hamish Jenkins
- UCAT
Our child wasn't sure how to organize the preparation for UCAT. The tutor's close attention to weaker areas gave us confidence. We quickly felt that the tutor was a good match.
Andres Benitez
- IGCSE / GCSE
We were realistic about what could be improved in the time available. I finally understood what was going wrong in IGCSE Art and Design. My mock results gradually became more consistent. I'm genuinely thankful to my tutor for being patient.
Tegan Connors
- TOEFL iBT
Breaking Speaking into smaller pieces worked much better for me. Knowing what to study reduced a lot of the stress.
Abril Mercado
- LSAT
Over time, Reading Comprehension became one of the most organized parts of my LSAT preparation. A lot of my mistakes came from rushing through the wording of the question. I became much more comfortable asking questions in class.
Elif Bozkurt
- AP Exams
Anxiety became more visible as the exam got closer. The lessons started being followed without constant reminders from us. Joining lessons willingly was one of the clearest signs for us. With no more than six students, the tutor had time for everyone. Mistakes became something to work on rather than something to feel bad about. We were pleased with the support we received.
Thao Cao
- GRE General
Over time, Sentence Equivalence became one of the most organized parts of my GRE General preparation. My preparation became much more regular and easier to track.
Darcy OConnell
- IGCSE / GCSE
The feedback I received on IGCSE History was clear and practical. One bad mock no longer made me want to drop the whole plan. I stopped listing facts in essays and started building an actual argument. I became much more comfortable asking questions in class. Knowing what to study reduced a lot of the stress. Thanks to TestPrep for helping me stay on track.
Valentina Cordero
- IELTS Academic
After my first attempt, I wanted the second round of preparation to feel more organized. My tutor made it easy to ask questions from the first lesson. Focusing on past papers and mock review worked well near the exam. The writing feedback helped me stop repeating the same sentence-level errors. I left the exam feeling that I had done what I could. Thank you to the tutor who stayed supportive until the end.
Reza Halim
- A-Level
The A-Level format felt unnecessarily confusing at first. Breaking A-Level Further Mathematics into smaller pieces worked much better for me. My tutor usually asked me to explain my thinking before stepping in. Seeing several versions of the same topic made unfamiliar questions less stressful. There was no overnight miracle, but the progress was easy to see. Thanks to everyone who supported me.
Sloane Warren
- IGCSE / GCSE
Everyone recommended different resources and I kept switching between them. My tutor made it easy to ask questions from the first lesson. The group never had more than six students, so it was easy to stay involved. 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. Thanks to everyone who supported me.
Sofia Fontana
- AP Exams
Our child wasn't sure how to organize the preparation for AP Exams. The small group offered peer learning without making it hard to ask questions. The plan was adjusted when school exams became busy. The lessons started being followed without constant reminders from us. We thank the tutor and the TestPrep team.
Aylin Gokce
- IB Diploma
What annoyed me most was losing easy points because I rushed. Over time, IB Chemistry became one of the most organized parts of my IB Diploma preparation. Near the exam, it was clear what to keep doing and what to stop. Past-paper questions showed me how different topics could appear together. Knowing what to study reduced a lot of the stress. It was an intense period, but it was worth it.
Kennedy Townsend
- AP Exams
I was close to my target, but my results changed a lot from one test to the next. I wasn't trying to learn new topics at the very last minute.
Matteo Parisi
- PTE Academic
Keeping up with PTE Academic while school was busy was harder than I expected. Thank you to the tutor who stayed supportive until the end.
Abril Arriaga
- Digital SAT
Our daughter needed regular support with SAT Math. Communication with the team was straightforward and our questions were answered. We thank the tutor and the TestPrep team.
Diego Simoes
- SSAT
The feedback I received on Middle Level was clear and practical. I never felt awkward asking the same thing again. I worked on keeping a steady pace instead of rushing the easy questions. I found a better balance between regular school and exam preparation. I wasn't trying to learn new topics at the very last minute. Thank you to my tutor and the TestPrep team.
