My son was accepted early to Dartmouth. He was just notified that he is a National Merit Finalist. He took the SAT twice as his calculator didn’t work the first time he took them. So he got 800 both times on the Critical Reading, Math 690 then 770 and Writing 740 to 760. Your teachers helped – no question.
Hi Marshall,
C. got a lot out of the class and really enjoyed having you as her teacher. She says you are “funny, awesome, a great teacher”! Just thought you should know. Thank you for all your effort.
A huge thank you for encouraging us to enroll C. in your prep classes. SAT scores were posted today and she did amazing. I think that’s pretty awesome, and we are really grateful to Rick, who not only made this rather painless, but infused some fun into it.
Thank you Lynn!! Amanda was great!! We have loved all of the tutors you have recommended over the years. Working with you has been really helpful and convenient, and I know it has helped my daughter get to this point. She is thrilled with her acceptance!
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.
Hey Marshall –
I felt really confident on the math sections. The easy problems were really easy, and the harder ones were extremely manageable. Thank you so much for all the help these past 10 weeks! There was one question in particular that I looked at and immediately felt bad for kids who didn’t have you and wouldn’t think to plug in numbers.
My son worked with Nitin to prepare for the AP exam in Comp Sci. Nitin so inspired my son that he is now seeking to major in Comp Sci at college. He just scored a 5 on his AP exam thanks to Nitin’s patient and caring manner. Thanks to Lynn and all her tutors my children have excelled.
Hi Meg!!
I’m thrilled to report that J. got a 780 on the [Chemistry] SAT Subject Test!!!!!! OMG! Awesome!! Thank you so much for all of your help! He’s so psyched. Thank you so much for all of your work with him. Clearly, it all paid off!!
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!
I cannot overstate how valuable the skills I gained while tutoring as an educator and mentor have been in medical school. I am so grateful for my experience as a tutor and could not be more excited to have chosen a career where kids and their families will continue to be the center of my work.
Wow, remote classroom learning worked really, really well for us. Kudos to you for being innovative, creative, and thinking outside the box to problem solve and implement such an enormous switch in a matter of days!
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.
Every person Carnegie Prep has sent, from John (who helped me be the only girl in my class to get a 5 on physics!!) to Anya (who is the only reason I’m actually getting supplements done) and now Jesse, who finally is making me feel like I have a grasp on math, is so genuinely helpful or nice!
Mike was able to work within my son’s busy summer schedule to give him the help he needed to achieve scores that would be acceptable to the highly competitive schools. My son’s final scores were 800 on the SAT Math, and 36 on both ACT Math and Science. He was accepted Early Decision to Vanderbilt University.
