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 started seeing shorter solutions that were easier to check under time pressure. Thank you to my tutor and the TestPrep team.
Samuel Burke
- LNAT
Keeping up with LNAT while school was busy was harder than I expected. Breaking Reading Comprehension into smaller pieces worked much better for me. We could make the workload lighter during busy weeks at school or university. My written answers became shorter, clearer and easier to follow. Knowing what to study reduced a lot of the stress. The preparation felt calmer than I expected.
Damian Ibarra
- IGCSE / GCSE
Breaking IGCSE English as a Second Language into smaller pieces worked much better for me. A lot of my mistakes came from rushing through the wording of the question. My preparation became much more regular and easier to track.
Elisa Fiore
- AP Exams
I was taking AP Seminar at school, but getting used to the exam questions took time. Thank you to the tutor who stayed supportive until the end.
Priscila Campos
- LNAT
I was taking Reading Comprehension at school, but getting used to the exam questions took time. We didn't spend extra time on things I already knew. After a while, the questions started to feel much more familiar. Thank you to my tutor and the TestPrep team.
Marissa Vaughn
- IMAT
The IMAT format felt unnecessarily confusing at first. My confidence improved along with the results.
Tomas Nikolic
- IGCSE / GCSE
I chose IGCSE Mathematics this year and wanted to build a solid base from the beginning. Breaking IGCSE Mathematics into smaller pieces worked much better for me. The plan changed with my mock and homework results, so the work never felt random. Seeing several versions of the same topic made unfamiliar questions less stressful. After a while, the questions started to feel much more familiar. I'm genuinely thankful to my tutor for being patient.
Priscila Correia
- ACT
Discussing why the other choices were wrong helped more than I expected. Thank you to my tutor and the TestPrep team.
Sydney Brennan
- IB Diploma
Our child had a clear goal but no steady study routine. The tutor supported regular study, not only the lesson content.
Tove Kolar
- AP Exams
When I started preparing for AP Exams, I wasn't sure what order to study things in. Experiencing the exam format beforehand made test day much less stressful. We focused more on understanding what the problem asked than memorizing formulas. I started tracking the type of mistake, not just the number of questions I completed. Thanks to everyone who supported me.
Blake Garland
- LSAT
My mock scores were inconsistent, so it was hard to judge my actual level. Near the exam, it was clear what to keep doing and what to stop. The group never had more than six students, so it was easy to stay involved. Discussing why the other choices were wrong helped more than I expected. There was no overnight miracle, but the progress was easy to see. A big thank you to my tutor for all the support :)
Elisa Coppola
- YÖS / TR-YÖS
We noticed that the resources kept changing during independent study. A good connection with the tutor developed quite quickly. Preparation looked calmer and more organized closer to the exam. Being able to fit lessons around school made the process easier. We were able to follow the mock results regularly. We were happy with both the teaching and the communication.
Gonzalo Gallardo
- AP Exams
Breaking AP Environmental Science into smaller pieces worked much better for me. Separating calculation errors from content gaps made revision more useful. I left the exam feeling that I had done what I could.
Kavya Patil
- GRE General
I stopped choosing answers by feel and started looking for evidence in the passage. Thank you to the tutor who stayed supportive until the end.
Franco Salazar

I was close to my target, but my results changed a lot from one test to the next. It was an intense period, but it was worth it.

- IGCSE / GCSE
Our daughter needed regular support with IGCSE English Literature. The tutor's close attention to weaker areas gave us confidence. The overall experience was positive from beginning to end.
Damla Akbulut
- PTE Academic
Breaking Listening into smaller pieces worked much better for me. My confidence improved along with the results.
Jack Whelan
- ACT
I finally understood what was going wrong in Time Management. 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. After a while, the questions started to feel much more familiar. I went into the exam much calmer than I would have before. Thank you to my tutor and the TestPrep team.
Beatrice Palmieri
- LNAT

Elise Arnaud
- TOEFL iBT
Lesson times could fit around school, university or work. Breaking Integrated Tasks into smaller pieces worked much better for me. My preparation became much more regular and easier to track. Thank you to the tutor who stayed supportive until the end.
Jonas Schafer
- AP Exams
Anxiety became more visible as the exam got closer. Mistakes became something to work on rather than something to feel bad about.
Rita Cabrera
- IB Diploma
When I started preparing for IB Diploma, I wasn't sure what order to study things in. We didn't spend extra time on things I already knew. I wasn't trying to learn new topics at the very last minute. Thank you to my tutor and the TestPrep team.
