Series Details

About

We'll be working through reading on the SAT, over a 6 week period, working through every possible type of passage you can expect to see on the SAT. Starting from effective reading techniques, and types of SAT passages we will eventually cover pacing and other broader test day strategies. The classes will be based on where you are with your prep, and there will be additional office hours and group study sessions.

✋ ATTENDANCE POLICY

While there is no strict attendance policy, I suggest attending most sessions if possible, since the topics covered will be sequential.
