Allison Kramer, College Admission Consultant at PrepScholar, helped my son with the college preparation process, including completing the college applications, brainstorming/writing college essays, and making the college final decision process. The most crucial thing Allison helped my son with was to figure out how he could make himself identify to stand out in academics and extracurriculars. The experiences we had were eye-opening and extraordinary, and we never imagined. My son and I highly recommend Allison Kramer as a College Admission Consultant.

Dominique has been supportive, not making me feel bad when things don't go the way we planned and instead always working with me to figure out how we can fix the problem at hand, and overall has been a huge help as both a resource and a mentor.

Claire was amazing at compelling storytelling and supportive through the rollercoaster of senior year. She was also very helpful in matching my preferences to colleges and making a great list. I am grateful I had her support through this journey!

I started Prep Scholar at the start of my sophomore year of high school. What made my experience so great was the personalized attention I got from my advisor, Claire Gerety-Mott. From the start, she helped me craft a story that made my application unique. She helped me find and apply to summer programs, pursue extracurricular opportunities, and gave me invaluable feedback on my college essays.

We tried PrepScholar with both of our kids. With my first, she said the program kept telling her that she needed to do practice tests. She kept taking practice tests.. and that was it. I asked for help from PrepScholar but only got an email saying that it's a great program, and she needs to keep working. She could work for hours and get no credit. It's easy to not pay a money-back guarantee when you control the conditions and can make fulfilling those conditions impossible. By studying free videos on the internet, she was able to get more help and improved her score by about 40 points. With my second, I'm more involved. I thought this would help me understand the program more as I'm walking through it with him. Maybe my first just.. didn't use the program properly. He hasn't been given any practice SATs yet, but he could spend an hour on a lesson and be given credit for 0.6 hours. At this point, we don't care about refunds, just help with the SAT please. Control over your learning and the settings is weird. I can't figure out how to change things like 'goal number of hours to study a week.' All in all, as an educator and a programmer, I'm not impressed. The price is too high for the level of instruction that I'm seeing. tldr; Meh. Try it if you want but know that you won't get your money back. If you throw $400 at it, spend it like you are lending it to that cousin you know will never pay you back.. just let it go.

Hi Lisa, thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We're sorry to hear that your children's experiences haven't quite met your expectations. We take all feedback seriously and use it to improve our program. We'd appreciate it if you could email us at [email protected] so we can review your case more closely and find a resolution tailored to your needs. In the meantime, we'd also like to address a few points you mentioned: >Practice Tests: The program assigns practice tests roughly every 10 hours of completed lessons. This helps students measure their progress and implement what they've learned in a full-length test format. >Time Tracker: The time tracker is designed to reflect active engagement with the program. It may pause if there's no mouse movement for an extended period. This discourages students from inflating their study time without truly absorbing the content. That being said, our point improvement guarantee is based on demonstrated proficiency (scoring 90% on the lesson quiz), not the study time itself, so this wouldn't affect your eligibility. >The "goal number of hours to study a week": This is determined by the student's input at the beginning of the week when prompted to plan their weekly schedule. This tool is meant to help students visualize their study time and allows us to send them SMS study reminders. The goal automatically resets every Sunday night. >Trying the program: We offer a 5-day risk-free trial period with full access to all of the program's features and content. If you're not 100% satisfied during this period, you can cancel no questions asked.
