SAT Students Are Smashing Their Ceilings. Here’s How This Student Did It

Challenge

When Keira Ching joined Prep Expert®’s 8-week SAT prep course, she was scoring around a 1300 on her initial practice test and struggling to maintain focus for more than an hour at a time. She wanted more than just a content boost, she was aiming to improve her concentration, confidence, and approach to learning.

“I went from struggling to comprehend much for an hour to studying and focusing for 3+ hours at a time!”

Keira needed a program that could raise her score while also transforming her study habits and mindset.

Solution

Keira enrolled in Prep Expert®’s 8-week course led by instructors Miguel and Alex. From day one, she found the sessions challenging, motivating, and transformative.

“My first practice test, I scored around a 1300, and by the last 3–4 practice tests, I was already scoring 1500s and above very consistently.”

Her instructors helped her:

  • Build study endurance from 1 hour to over 3 hours
  • Develop a goal-setting framework she could use beyond the SAT
  • Gain strategic skills to approach questions with clarity and confidence

“It taught me, most of all, to be kinder to myself, and to believe in the things I can accomplish… and, better yet: the actual steps to achieving your goals.”

The course didn’t just teach her what to learn, it taught her how to learn.

Results

Keira’s hard work paid off in remarkable ways:

  • Score increase: 1300 ➝ consistently above 1500 on practice tests
  • Focus stamina more than tripled, from 1 hour to 3+ hours
  • New mindset and learning strategies that extended beyond test prep

I think that was the most valuable part because this course teaches you HOW to learn on top of what to learn.”

Recommendation

For Keira, Prep Expert® became more than an SAT prep course, it was a complete mindset shift.

“It’s a lot of hard work, but I think it’s worth every minute!”

Her journey shows how the right prep can elevate not just your score, but the way you approach challenges for life.
