Parents

  • Both of my sons loved it!

    My son’s score went up significantly by taking the Higher Scores Test Prep SAT course. He was able to be independent in his studying but had support. My younger son will be doing this program when it is time for him to get ready for his SATs.

  • 5-Star Service!

    Our son David began his SAT prep just weeks before his final attempt to raise his score. He raised his score by 60 points! Those 60 points landed him an additional scholarship for $4,000! I’m a believer.

  • She was absolutely thrilled

    One of my children has never been a good test taker, but she implemented the Higher Scores strategies and found that they really worked! Her scores in English and Reading were each 3 points higher than her practice test.

  • Boom! She scored a 33!

    Boom! … That was the first word out of my daughter’s mouth when she got her December ACT score back. She tossed her phone to me and I quickly found out why… she scored a 33! I couldn’t be more proud of her. She was diligent studying the material, and it paid off!

  • Review when it’s convenient

    My son has a very busy sports schedule running XC and Track year round. We also had vacations planned and he couldn’t take advantage of the SAT review sessions offered by his school. Luckily, I found Higher Scores Test Prep. He was able to review when it’s convenient for him, even when we went on vacations. My son was very happy with his SAT score. Earlier this month, we received the news we have been hoping for. He was accepted at his top pick for Engineering school!

Students

  • The best ACT prep course ever!

    I took the ACT once before I took this course, and then once after I took the class, and my score improved by 7 points! I chose the two month option which was a little more expensive but totally worth it. I got an amazing scholarship because of this class, so I didn’t mind spending the money for it at all!!

  • I got a perfect composite score!

    I never thought that I could achieve a perfect ACT composite until my score was in front of me, and I know that my huge improvements are due to this program.  I’m so grateful for your help!

     Thank you so much for all your help! Your techniques were eye opening and definitely gave me the confidence boost I needed after my first test.

     They worked with my daughter to prepare for the SAT this spring. As an educator, I have high standards, and Higher Scores far exceeded them. They go well above and beyond to ensure that their students meet their goals.

Frequently Asked Questions

Our courses primarily focus on helping you find your testing confidence by showing you ways to hack the tests from the strategic angle. Our content is all about helping you understand the test-makers and how the test is put together so that you can excel even if you don’t have 100% of the concepts memorized.

Unfortunately, the official test-makers have no real incentive to show you how to hack their exam, so working with their official review materials can only get you so far. To maximize your final score, you’ll need to learn a tried and true strategic approach like the one we teach in our courses.

On average, ACT prep students realize 3-5 points of improvement.

On average, our SAT prep students realize 80-160 points of improvement.

The sprint courses can be completed in as few as six hours, though we recommend working through them over the course of a week!

Students taking the Comprehensive courses ideally should complete the full 18-lesson study guide prior to their first exam over the course of three to twelve weeks.

You’ll need a computer with an internet connection to access the video tutorials for the program. At registration, you’ll be prompted to create an account which will give you access to your courses at any time.

All prep materials for the courses are accessible in the relevant lessons under the “Materials” tabs. The lessons are organized by “days” which include all of the lessons and homework we recommend you complete in one study day. You can find an overview of the schedule on the Study Guide which will be emailed to you (and available for download under Course Materials) when you register.

If you choose to follow the study guide, it organizes the video tutorials from the course alongside free official practice tests from College Board or ACT, as well as some in-house quizzes to track your progress.

All of our courses come with easy-access question forms that go directly to our test prep teachers.

Students can get help on the courses, tests, platforms, and anything else they might be curious about at the click of a button. Our team of teachers have been working with these tests for over 25 years, and they will be available for whatever you might need.

We’d love to answer them! Just fill out our contact form, and we’ll get back to you shortly.
