I didn't even know this place existed until I got the address from Kaplan's GRE pamphlet. 2.) Service: I tell you the teachers and tutors do a great job relaying the information to you. The tutors especially are patient and thorough. 3.) Price: It can get costly. I got a package for the GRE a.) traditional Classes, b.) tutoring and c.) online classes of around $2,000. Yes, 2 GRAND. It was very quality. This stuff helped me to get into at least a state school like UConn whenever I want to apply there. 4.) Impressions: Getting taught how to take a standardized test is not like traditional learning. It's suppose to help you have the skills to master the process of elimination with multiple choice questions. So once you you learn this, it is recommended that you take the standardized test right away. This is information that you can't hold onto for next year to then take. They tell you this here. I loved this place. It was good.

Clarity Ed is stuck in the past! My child went for the Digital SAT training and wasted $3,000 for…read moreno gain. Some highlights of the review are below. 1. The instructor (Dr. Bob) does not share any strategies for the Digital SAT, but rather teaches using the Barons SAT Test Prep book (with the front page changed from 'Baron's' to 'ClarityEd'!! What a shame. 2. Digital SAT and its strategies differ from the paper SAT from 2023. Dr. Bob has no clue of what to expect in Digital SAT. He has no idea about the strategies for reading and writing for grammar, transitions, vocabulary, etc. 3. Dr. Bob uses the questions from the College Board practice tests (DSAT 1 through DSAT 6) for practice before kids take the practice test. This way, the students have already seen the questions and when they actually take the Dt practice tests, they score well, because they've seen the questions already. 4. Dr. Bob is notoriously secretive that he does not even have any reviews online. He says he graduated from a prestigious institution, with no credentials whatsoever to back that claim. I doubt if he has any of that sort of educational pedigree. 5. After the test was done and when my child did not receive the intended score, I asked how Dr. Bob could help to improve his score in the next attempt. With $3,000 in his pocket, and nothing further to offer, Dr. Bob never returned the call. It's no surprise for me that Dr. Bob disappears now that I think back through the events. For those who join through word of mouth (because this guy has no reviews online), please make sure you know what you get. I'd say, look for folks who have strategies that line up with the Digital SAT and are not stuck in the past and secretive.
