Every student’s needs will be different, and Lynn Carnegie and Carnegie Prep show the ability to rapidly adapt SAT/SSAT tutoring to each individual student, with kindly encouragement, practicality, cost-effectiveness, and making it all seem almost easy!
I have great news! I have accepted my admission to Yale’s Class of 2020! I am very excited about this, as I know Yale is the best fit for me. I can’t thank you and the other Carnegie heroes enough. I really couldn’t have done it without each and every one of you. John, Rick, Marshall — you guys rock.
A huge THANK YOU for referring us to Allison for SAT tutoring! The sessions spent with Allison boosted R.’s score from 1390 to 1520 on Math and Reading (790M 730R) and from 630 to 730 on Writing… a total increase of 230 points! She was able to focus his attention on the optimal way to improve his score.
Hi Austin,
I just wanted to thank you again for all your help with the SATs. Getting an 800 in Math was awesome! Those killer packets and plug-in-number strategies were great practice and I did not have any surprises during the test. Thanks again for making the SATs less stressful.
Austin Lehn and Duane Smith were great and extremely helpful throughout the entire process.
R. will be attending UMass Amherst in the Fall. He was also accepted into their honors college. He was also accepted to UConn, Northeastern, and Boston University. I know his SAT scores of 2120 helped him get into his choice of colleges. Thank you again to Duane Smith and Amelia Clark. Especially his writing score, which was a 780!
I want to thank you for recommending Kyle. J. scored 800 Critical Reading, 770 Math, 800 Writing! He attributes his success to Kyle’s fantastic tutoring. Kyle is extremely smart and knows what he’s talking about when it comes to these tests. Kyle’s kind and calm demeanor was just what J needed to be able to relax and perform at best.
Thank you for your support for my son, he definitely benefited from the focused instruction and your dedication.
B has been selected as a winner of the National Merit $2500 Scholarship. Thank you, Lynn, for taking time last year to discuss the possibility with me. The classes B took for the PSAT and SAT were fantastic. He couldn’t have done better!
Our daughter is loving these classes! She says you all know her by name, she feels super supported, she says you all are so engaging and make the work so interesting, and she is doing so well! There is nothing in the world more valuable than teachers that inspire and motivate students and make them excited to learn!
My son’s test scores are through the roof after your prep courses. Amanda worked with him on his common application and supplemental essays and I am so impressed with all he has learned and the products he’s produced. Thank you for running a fabulous organization with an amazing ROI!
Just finished up the [PSAT] about 15 minutes ago and it went awesome! I remember taking it last year and felt overwhelmed with the timing and number of questions I was required to answer. The course definitely prepared me to be a better test taker. Looking forward to getting scores and sending them your way!
Thanks so much for all your help, Rick! He said your class was painless and “Actually Fun.” M. started the class with low confidence fearing the SAT process would be grueling and, thanks to you, was more than pleasantly surprised and achieved great results! We are referring many friends to you. Thanks again for all your help and support!
I want to write to thank you for referring us to Caroline to help my daughter with her ISEE preparation. Caroline was very organized – I like how she would go through each topic that required additional help and how she organized the vocabulary learning. Caroline engaged well with my daughter and helped her feel motivated to learn well.
My son has waxed poetic about you throughout the process and the support you have offered has been invaluable. College essays has not been an easy subject for our family and you have made it the best experience possible. Thank you for your generosity of spirit and time and we look forward to our younger daughter working with you next year and reading the final product.
