I wanted to share with you the great news. R. scored a total of 227, with a 70 in Critical Reading, 80 in Math, and 77 in Writing. These scores are a 52 point increase from his PSAT last year. R. is thrilled at the results. I was glad that he went into the PSAT feeling confident and prepared.
Hi Amanda,
On Monday, K. received a handwritten note from an admissions officer at [a university] – he said her essay was one of most memorable he’s read this year. They are flying her out in March to interview for a full tuition scholarship. Thank you SO MUCH for helping her express the “why” in her common app essay! She couldn’t have done it without you!
Great news for B!!! He got a 33 (up from a 26 in Dec when he took it unprepped)!!!! We can’t thank you enough for all of your assistance…..you really have a great system with great prep materials – so glad that we made the effort to have B attend the session!! High five to Carnegie and all of its awesome tutors – you guys are amazing!!
My son scored an 800 on the SAT Math II and a 5 on the AP Stats! Thanks to Carnegie Prep for all of the test prep support!
We wanted to thank you for the excellent tutoring provided by Jerry for our daughter for her SAT. He is a first class tutor with tremendous insight and knowledge. All of his advice and techniques paid off with excellent test scores for her. He made the process so much easier and his sense of humor provided a sense of levity.
R. will be attending UMass Amherst in the Fall. He was also accepted into their honors college. He was also accepted to UConn, Northeastern, and Boston University. I know his SAT scores of 2120 helped him get into his choice of colleges. Thank you again to Duane Smith and Amelia Clark. Especially his writing score, which was a 780!
I can’t thank you enough for the services that you provide. My daughter doesn’t need a tutor weekly for three months. Other educational services have wanted us to pay for programs where you had to sign on for a certain number of hours. I always know I can contact you and you’ll find me an amazing person that can help her for just as much or as little as is appropriate for her.
You have always helped us with great tutors. Hunter is unparalleled in his approach and efficacy. He has an easy manner and communication style that my daughter responds to. We have given his name to most of her friends who will be studying AP Calculus AB next year. Many thanks to you both!
I knew the minute I met Boyi that her quiet confidence would be an inspiration to my daughter. I am proud to say that with Boyi’s help, my daughter scored a perfect 36 on the ACT! This will have a lasting impact on her life forever, and we are grateful to you for introducing us to Boyi.
I attended Matt’s AP World History class on Sunday and really enjoyed watching him work. His style is very deliberate and straightforward, which makes covering such a wide range of material manageable. Moreover, he has a great rapport with the students. He’s unequivocally one of the best teachers that I have encountered to date.
My daughter was accepted ED at Boston University for the class of 2021. Thank you for all the help!! You have a fabulous organization and have helped both my kids. Both kids got into their first choice school and I’m not sure either of them could have pulled it off without the help of your exceptional team.
Duane was incredibly helpful in preparing my daughter for SAT Critical Reading. After just a few sessions with him, my daughter strengthened her skills and the strategies he provided made her feel confident. Her score went from the mid-600s to an 800. She couldn’t have been more thrilled and is so grateful to have found Duane.
Our daughters have taken many of your prep courses over the years. A. needed a boost to her scores, so you suggested that she meet with Jerry. Through all of her hard work and your son’s coaching, she was so happy to find that she improved her Math score by 100 points.
Thank you for helping my son get into his first choice school early action. Having gone to the SAT classes and the AP Exam preps, we are more than satisfied. The review classes were a great way to brush up on material and focus on his problem areas. Junior year was time intensive, but now that J. can reap the rewards, it was so worth it.
James was absolutely AWESOME for Latin. I can’t say enough good things about him!
