• Students taking the SAT or PSAT Reading-Writing section will answer 54 questions in 64 minutes.

  • Students who excel demonstrate sound reading skills, high comprehension, efficient intake and interpretation of textual information, quick evidence-based decision-making, and systematic pattern recognition. This boot camp helps students create a response framework and trains them on the proper approach for each type of question posed by the SAT and PSAT. Additionally, efficiencies and the elimination of errors for optimal performance are taught. The SAT and PSAT also evaluate English grammar rules and rhetorical skills. Most schools do NOT teach English grammar today, so students typically choose the multiple choice that 'looks right,' 'sounds right,' or 'does not look weird.' (Ask your student!) For a meaningful score improvement, students should master these grammar rules and rhetorical skills. Our boot camp teaches students how.
