FLEX College Prep

I would say my rating is mostly based on my ACT score change (25 to a 33) rather than based on the quality of the center. In general, test prep will not teach your child much about grammar, reading, math, etc., but it will force them to practice for the test. I think by the end of my time at FLEX, I took about 15 – 20 practice tests with them. This is essential, because I basically knew all the questions before I took the ACT. Honestly, without flex forcing me to practice the ACT, I would not be at my university, which has an average ACT score of a 31 – 33. So for that, I am very thankful.

I went to 23 240 324 092 309 different SAT prep schools when I was in high school, and FLEX is the one that helped me improve my score the most. I had Yoon as my instructor, and you can’t find any SAT instructor just as good or better than her. Most teachers I’ve had only spent time going over specific problems that I answered incorrectly, but this method didn’t help in the long run because it just helped me memorize the answer to just that one question. Rather than doing that allllllllll the time and giving out general/​too specific advice, she taught me PRACTICAL and useful ways for approaching all the different kinds of problems that commonly showed up on tests. I have to emphasize PRACTICAL once again. Her tips were super PRACTICAL; you could start using them as soon as you learned. I was able to utilize the different tricks for every question. I eventually got to answer questions more efficiently and faster (and correctly of course), thus improving my score by a lot! The classes were also fun because many of my friends were in them :).
