TAFKAPFTW. Who doesn't love the Princeton Review? But it's not actually based in Princeton apparently? Or at least maybe for this region, it's based right here in this mall, just seconds from UT campus. Pretty interesting. Pretty cool actually since it's basically on campus. It closes earlier than the rest of them though so most of the times I've been here I haven't been able to check it out. Anyway it's more Barbie's thing than mine because she went to the Ivy League and is actually proud of it, whereas I went to Oxford and am indifferent to it at best.

Update 5/26/11: my daughter just finished her first year at a top Ivy League university. I…read moreguarantee the Princeton Review, which upped her score considerably, was a big part of her getting into a class with a 9% acceptance rate. Not to mention, the university offered her super financial aid, so it ended up being very, very affordable. Our investment in the PR course ended up paying off in a huge way. Original review from Feb 2010: My kid took the SAT prep course, and it made a substantial difference in her score. I'd bought several test prep books that helped a little, but there is something about the in-person experience that really makes the info sink in, so this is absolutely worth the time and effort. It's expensive, so look online for promotional codes which can save some money. It does involve homework, so be sure to budget time appropriately. The only caveat is their system for the essay - though she's a particularly skilled writer, she followed the PR instructions to the letter for this test section (instead of doing her usual thing) - and it actually cost her points. If we did it again, I'd tell her to ignore them on the essay bits but pay close attention for the rest. Overall, we enthusiastically recommend Princeton Review.

I took one-on-one lessons with Henry and was able to learn many useful and natural expressions…read more Henry provided prompt feedback and guided the conversation, making it easy to talk. The new expressions provided in the chat were useful and helpful for reviewing on my own after the lessons. I learned various expressions used by local native speakers, starting with 'brick and mortar' for offline stores. Additionally, I learned other ways to ask for someone's opinion, such as 'how do you find something?' What made the lessons even better was Henry's familiarity and experience living in Korea, which facilitated communication. The lessons were so fulfilling that one hour felt too short. I highly recommend one-on-one lessons with Henry. I really appreciate you teaching me, Henry.

Very patient instruction, the course materials are as thorough it gets, and online materials are very useful as well. If you want to crack the 700s on your verbal and quant sections of the GRE, go with Manhattan. They will be offering "New GRE" courses this summer and they also offer online options if you can't attend class in-person. The GMAT course is also excellent. HOT TIP: use promo code ATXGRE for $100 off enrollment.

I agree with Erik's review. Hastings Wyman was an excellent instructor. He was extremely…read moreenthusiastic, helpful, and entertaining. The course is very interactive, and Hastings tried to get everybody involved to solve problems together. Although this course is one of the most expensive I've seen, I think it's worth it. Not only do you receive a ridiculously large amount of study materials, you have access to Manhattan GMAT's online resources. Their online student system is very user-friendly, and they are extremely quick to respond to inquiries. I would definitely recommend this prep course to students who are serious about taking the GMAT and enrolling in business school.

I cannot recommend Matt Williamson highly enough!! I took his in-person LSAT prep course in Austin…read morein the Spring of 2016 and he massively succeeded my expectations. Matt is hands-down amazing. Before I even signed up for the course, I called him on his personal cell and he answered every one of my million questions in an hour-long conversation. After this phone call, I signed up for the course, and the misery of studying for the LSAT began. As difficult as the content is, and as miserable as studying for this test can be, Matt made the class extremely fun and I actually looked forward to the 4-hour long classes every Tues/Thurs. night after my 8 hour workday. He is extremely positive and upbeat throughout every class and he always has a hilarious anecdote to lighten the mood. Upbeat classes and funny jokes aside, he is absolutely BRILLIANT. I have never met a person who is both brilliant and personable. He is not awkward at all and is a surprisingly normal and genuine human being who really cares about each of his students and their success. Plus he has many tricks that can make even the toughest logic games seem like a piece of cake. The thing that surprised me the most was his dedication to his students. He always arrived to class an hour early to answer any questions from individual students. AND every class had an optional 30 minute to hour-long "postgame" where students who wanted extra practice could stay late to work on tough problems with him looking over your shoulder. Not only that, but he gives every student his personal cell # so that you can call/text him anytime with questions. Matt is also unique because he is not a current law student or recent grad working this job for extra money. He is a full-time tutor with over 10 years of experience teaching the LSAT. I believe that this expertise and his devotion to his students makes him a one-of-a-kind LSAT instructor and you would be remiss not to take his course.
