★★★★★
I like that the practice work is tailored to what your weaknesses are. I focused mainly on math and raised my score 190 points in just that one section!
Jessica N.
★★★★★
Thanks to the program, my score went up nearly 200 points! Easy to follow, kept me organized, and the 6 practice tests helped me feel comfortable for the real test. I knew exactly what to expect.
James S.
★★★★★
Prep was easy, engaging, you could choose between video and text based learning, and most of all, I imporved my score by over 300 points! I got a 1570, so nothing to complain about here.
Isabella H.
★★★★★
Mr. Byrom definitely knows his subject matter very well. This is the most useful SAT class I’ve ever taken. He provided a variety of helpful tips and strategies for the SAT. His classes are interactive, and he ensures that we understand the material.
Ilan D.
★★★★★
I really enjoyed working with Paul and I feel that I progressed with my SAT understanding as time went by. His explanations were always clear and seeing his thought process as we went through questions together helped me improve my own thought process as I took on questions alone. This helped me consistently score high on my practice tests.
Allyson G.
★★★★★
Training plan was flexible to my daughter's busy schedule, which we appreciated. The lessons were very much on point and easy to follow. My daughter improved her SAT score such that she now qualifies for the academic scholarship she was shooting for.
Nina N.
★★★★★
I love using PrepScholar! For me, personally, the video lessons are a blast and I love that if I don't understand a video lesson, there is always a written explanation with practice questions. I really found the explanations for wrong answers useful and better than simply trying to figure out what I did wrong.
C. Caldonetti
★★★★★
Mr. Dueck was very helpful as my SAT tutor. Specifically, he offered test taking strategies and time management solutions. With less than a year of tutoring and completing the assignments he gave me, my score jumped from 1030 to 1230 after three attempts.
Buena B.
★★★★★
As someone who has their share of impatient and unfriendly teachers, Prep Scholar does it right with their amazing instructors. I felt that my voice was heard. and able to be vulnerable when it came to questions/difficult problems. I really admire the kindness and patience of the teachers and highly recommend the class.

How to claim your refund: To protect the integrity of our guarantee, we require that your official score report be mailed directly to us by the College Board, not submitted digitally. Please contact the College Board to have your complete score history sent to:

PrepScholar's Complete Online SAT Prep program is the #1 self-paced, adaptive online prep course. Everything you need to maximize your SAT score is built in:
- Smart diagnostic test that places you in the right difficulty level across skills and builds a personalized weekly prep plan from day one
- 90 skill lessons covering every Reading & Writing and Math topic on the SAT
- 4,700+ practice questions with thorough explanations and a Quiz Generator arena
- 8 official College Board™ practice tests with detailed score reports
- 150 hours of content (minimum 40 study hours recommended), available 24/7 for 1 year
- Automated progress emails to keep students and parents in the loop
- 160+ point improvement guarantee: complete the course and don't improve? We'll refund you in full.
- AI Learning Assistant (in the $495 package): an always-available SAT AI expert built directly into the program
The Complete SAT Online Prep program has a baseline of about 40 total study hours, which is the minimum recommended to get the most from the course. For example, if you plan to take the SAT in two months (around eight weeks), we recommend studying about five hours per week.
However, every student learns at a different pace. Some skill lessons may take more than one attempt to master, which can extend the total study time beyond 40 hours. Beyond that, the program includes much more than 40 hours of available content. With thousands of practice questions and detailed lessons, you can spend hundreds of hours learning with PrepScholar.
Our program has supported students preparing intensively over just three weeks as well as those studying gradually for up to two years.
Complete Prep at $397 or $495 is perfect for a student who will do the work with a system telling them what to do. It is where most families start.
Live classes at $895 add a fixed weekly commitment and a teacher who notices when your student goes quiet. Best when the issue is consistency rather than content.
1-on-1 tutoring from $995 is for students with a specific skill or knowledge gap, an aggressive target such as 1500+, or a timeline that leaves no room for a wrong turn. Every plan includes the full $495 program regardless, so tutoring hours are spent on your student rather than on lecturing.
A 15-minute call with an Academic Advisor will usually settle it faster than reading more.
This is the most common reason a self-paced course fails, and it is why we built the accountability layer into our program rather than just the content.
The weekly plan tells your student exactly what to do, so there is no decision to avoid. SMS reminders go to them, not to you, which keeps the nagging out of your relationship. Progress emails come to you, so you find out in Week Two rather than Month Three. And the AI Learning Assistant exists specifically for the moment a student gets stuck and would otherwise close the laptop.
If your student needs a person rather than a system, that is a legitimate reason to look at live classes or tutoring instead.
