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 up with AP Exams while school was busy was harder than I expected. I was really happy with the lessons.
Kenji Kimura
- GRE General
I finally understood what was going wrong in Sentence Equivalence. When I got something wrong, we looked at why I chose that answer instead of only checking the solution. Discussing why the other choices were wrong helped more than I expected. My confidence improved along with the results. I became much more comfortable asking questions in class. Thanks to everyone who supported me.

The A-Level format felt unnecessarily confusing at first. My confidence improved along with the results.

I chose AP Calculus AB this year and wanted to build a solid base from the beginning. Over time, AP Calculus AB became one of the most organized parts of my AP Exams preparation. I started tracking the type of mistake, not just the number of questions I completed. I started seeing shorter solutions that were easier to check under time pressure. Knowing what to study reduced a lot of the stress. Thanks to everyone who supported me.
Agustina Segura
- ACT
I was doing questions for ACT Reading on my own but never had a steady routine. I wasn't trying to learn new topics at the very last minute.
Yui Abe
- PTE Academic
Our child wasn't sure how to organize the preparation for PTE Academic. The lessons started being followed without constant reminders from us. The plan was adjusted when school exams became busy. The question bank made independent work between lessons much clearer. Mistakes became something to work on rather than something to feel bad about. We thank the tutor and the TestPrep team.
Emi Kato
- IB Diploma
Anxiety became more visible as the exam got closer. We were pleased with the support we received.
Riley Teague
- AP Exams
Communication with the team was straightforward and our questions were answered. Online lessons made it possible to continue without losing time on travel. We were happy with both the teaching and the communication.
Damian Alarcon
- IB Diploma
After my first attempt, I wanted the second round of preparation to feel more organized. It was an intense period, but it was worth it.
Zoe Rhodes
- LNAT
The feedback I received on Section B Essay was clear and practical. My tutor made it easy to ask questions from the first lesson. I learned not to spend the same amount of time on every line of a long text. I wasn't trying to learn new topics at the very last minute. I became much more comfortable asking questions in class. A big thank you to my tutor for all the support :)
Leonor Rojas
- LSAT
Having the lesson move at my pace made the process feel much easier. Breaking Logical Reasoning into smaller pieces worked much better for me. There was no overnight miracle, but the progress was easy to see. The preparation felt calmer than I expected.
Kiara Reddy
- IGCSE / GCSE
The feedback I received on IGCSE Art and Design was clear and practical. The feedback was clear enough that I always knew what to revise next. I found a better balance between regular school and exam preparation.
Federico Fontana
- IB Diploma
The class felt relaxed enough to ask questions without overthinking it. I finally understood what was going wrong in IB Biology. I wasn't trying to learn new topics at the very last minute. I'm glad I worked with my tutor through this process.
Beatriz Ramos
- IGCSE / GCSE
Breaking IGCSE Computer Science into smaller pieces worked much better for me. My written code answers became much more organized. I left the exam feeling that I had done what I could.

- AP Exams
We wanted our child to keep up with the school pace in AP European History. We were able to follow the mock results regularly. The tutor supported regular study, not only the lesson content. Individual lesson time was used around our child's actual needs. It was good to see confidence returning over time. We were happy with both the teaching and the communication.
Ming Hu
- A-Level
I was doing questions for A-Level Accounting on my own but never had a steady routine. Thank you to the tutor who stayed supportive until the end.

We wanted our child to keep up with the school pace in IB Psychology. Thank you sincerely to everyone involved.
Sota Ito
- AP Exams
Keeping up with AP Exams while school was busy was harder than I expected. When I got something wrong, we looked at why I chose that answer instead of only checking the solution. I stopped listing facts in essays and started building an actual argument. The preparation felt calmer than I expected.
Can Gunes
- IGCSE / GCSE
Over time, IGCSE Sociology became one of the most organized parts of my IGCSE / GCSE preparation. I found a better balance between regular school and exam preparation.
Chelsea Kearney
- AP Exams
Keeping up with AP Exams while school was busy was harder than I expected. Questions from other students often helped me as well. Source questions became easier once I noticed how small details affected the mark. 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. Thank you to the tutor who stayed supportive until the end.
Claire Barrett
- AP Exams
I wasn't starting from zero, but the same mistakes kept showing up in my mocks. Over time, AP Physics 1 became one of the most organized parts of my AP Exams preparation. We could make the workload lighter during busy weeks at school or university. Knowing the topic wasn't always enough; I had to learn which information the question actually needed. There was no overnight miracle, but the progress was easy to see. It was an intense period, but it was worth it.
Fernanda Galindo
- LNAT
Questions from other students often helped me as well. Over time, Argument Analysis became one of the most organized parts of my LNAT preparation. I left the exam feeling that I had done what I could. Thank you to the tutor who stayed supportive until the end.
Reid Kirby
- PTE Academic
Breaking Computer-Based Practice into smaller pieces worked much better for me. My tutor usually asked me to explain my thinking before stepping in. Before coding, I began thinking about which structure actually fit the problem. Knowing what to study reduced a lot of the stress. I found a better balance between regular school and exam preparation. A big thank you to my tutor for all the support :)
