SAT Course

For high school juniors and seniors, optimal performance on the SAT is a key factor in accessing higher educational opportunities. Our cutting-edge techniques are designed to help students master higher level thinking skills critical to entering the standardized test environment with confidence and answering questions with greater ease.

Our intensive six-week SAT course is built on innovative techniques derived from critical analyses and research on individual learning styles. Each class is limited to fourteen (14) students to allow maximum participation and individual assessment throughout the course.

To get an early start, many IST students also opt to take our three-week Power-Packed PSAT Prep Course, offered in July as a part of our popular Summer Series.

Courses are taught by dynamic instructors who are highly qualified and deeply committed to ensuring the success of our students. All instructors are college graduates who have tested and excelled on the material they are teaching, and who continue to add fresh perspectives to the traditional classroom learning environment.

To date, our students increase their scores by 150-250 points on the actual SAT. Test the difference for yourself!
