Testing Solutions
CUSTOM TEST PREP
Our goal is to provide exceptional service and superior training. To that end, we truly tailor what we do with each client. There are no set plans, no minimum hours, and absolutely no groups. We use a proprietary process developed by Jesse Hedrick to help each student maximize their potential.
1. Before a student cracks a book with us, we walk them through each section of the test.
- In this phase of preparation we cover all the concepts that are presented in each section
- We cover how these concepts are packaged (it differs from section to section)
- We establish that each test contains different questions, yes, however each test is the same presentation of roughly the same concepts . . . so learning to recognize the packaging is half the battle
- We make sure the student’s base of knowledge is sound
- We make sure the student can quickly recognize and critically analyze any given problem
2. The students must put some independent time in.
- In this second phase of preparation, we show our students how to study and prepare by giving them actual, tailored assignments, with a suggested time investment of 20–30 minutes/day, 4–6 days a week
- We help the student establish a calendar based on their test date
- We offer practice tests administered on site and scored free of charge
- We ask students to note any concepts they do not understand as they work through homework and practice tests
NOTE: This regular, consistent effort is how the student internalizes all the tools and concepts we will provide, and it is essential.
3. We get you psyched up for the test.
- As test date approaches, we mentally prepare our students with tips on how to think about test day
- We prepare our students with tips on the night before and morning of
- We give our students test day strategies
NOTE: Once test scores are in, we are available to discuss whether or not the student should take additional tests based on original goals and available time. Should more testing be desired, we will tailor next steps for your student.
