What People Are Saying

Read what just a few satisfied students and parents have to say about their Test Your Best success stories! Student names have been omitted to ensure privacy.

“The thing Jay did best for my son was to understand who he was dealing with. He adjusted his style and expectations so as not to scare [my son] off. [My son] was reticent and in my opinion Jay worked a miracle.”
Weston High School parent

This student took the May SAT with no tutoring or assistance, and was disappointed with his score. He studied with Test Your Best the following fall and earned 180 points more on the October SAT than he had earned in May. Had he started earlier, the potential increase would have been even more dramatic. Thanks in part to Test Your Best's essay review service, he was admitted Early Decision to his first choice school. (As is common among Test Your Best families, when the younger sibling was ready for test prep we were called to the plate to help with the SAT and ACT! A family tradition...)

“Jay was very easy to work with and talk to and he had a good rapport with our son [ ], who sometimes can be difficult to motivate….We will definitely recommend Jay to our friends and use him again for our son [ ] next year.”
Staples High School parent

This student worked with Test Your Best for just a few sessions prior to the March SAT. We worked together in earnest toward the May test, and between March and May he earned an extra 130 points! He was admitted Early Decision to his first choice, Tufts University. His parents are still basking in the news! They also kept good to their word, and their younger son recently began SAT work with Jay.

“[Our son] thought working with you was very beneficial. We’d love to speak with you about improving [our daughter’s] test-taking skills….”
St. Luke’s School parent

This student used Test Your Best strategies to garner 150 points more on his SAT than he had on his PSAT and admissions consulting helped him gain entry to his first choice college! Another member of the family is currently under Test Your Best’s tutelage.

"Whenever I see somebody at Staples using the blue and white Test Your Best pencils, I get WAY too excited - leave it to me to scare away strangers on account of a pencil!"
Staples High School student

This student had a lot of other great things to say about her tutoring experience, but we just HAD to include this quote on the website! The pencils are pretty cool...

"[My tutor] really helped improve my math scores a lot - by almost 150."

"I could have done well without Jay, but it wouldn't have been what I was fully capable of."

"Without your help, I don't know if [The University of] Michigan would have been possible."
