I couldn't be more impressed with their level of professionalism. My niece had a particularly difficult situation. After losing her father two hears ago, we noticed a steady decline in her grades at school. After a year as a C student trying to tutor at home we realized we needed a professional to help her understand the material. Applerouth created a unique learning plan and was able to connect with her on a level we never could! She is now bringing in an A- average, and we couldn't be happier. She's making friends, and is actually excited to go to school. I wholeheartedly recommend Applerouth to anyone who may find themselves in our situation, or for anyone who may just need a bit of help. You won't regret it!

Before you read, all of my comments are about 1 location only, the Briarcliff Rd location…read more It was the worst SAT course prep I have ever taken. I have never felt the need to give a negative review but I have no second thoughts about leaving a review for Applerouth's SAT course. It is the definition of a waste of money, and I want people to know what they are getting into. Here are things that happened while I took the SAT prep class: During one of the practice SATs, a cockroach crawled up my leg and obviously distracted me from my test. My teacher didn't offer to help and acted scared. I had to kill it myself while my time was running out. To add on, there was no AC in the building. Unless you are a cockroach, why in the world would you want to marinate for 2 1/2 hours in a building without AC in the MIDDLE OF JULY. All of the people taking the test were genuinely sweating. Next! I had two teachers who each taught about 4 classes, so 8 in total, and I think my knowledge may have regressed. The first guy seriously taught like he was picked off the street and asked "do you know how to add?" and then was hired. He tried to make jokes that weren't funny and he didn't have the basic knowledge to teach an SAT class. Once we were doing a problem and I got my answer, shared my answer, and he said we will see if I'm right at the end of the problem. So then the whole class works through the problem about 90%, and goes onto the next problem. I asked what the final answer was, because he never shared it, and guess what he said!! He said "oh I didn't work out the whole problem cause my knowledge stops at Algebra 1"! what I'm sorry what I honestly thought I was getting pranked. How are you teaching an SAT class and you don't work out the full problem??? I jumped for joy when I went to a class and he wasn't our teacher anymore! But my hopes were too high, because the next lady shocked me even more! She was late to EVERY class, at least 30 mins but more than likely an hour late. First of all, that is disrespectful of our time. And if teenagers can be on time to an SAT class, what the hell is up with an adult that can't?? Low bar people, low bar. She also, didn't teach well. Better than the guy, but not well at all. I was about to loose my shit when she wasn't even phased that she was late. If I was late, you wouldn't be hearing the end of my sorrys. I just don't get it, if you choose the time of the class as the teacher, BE THERE ON TIME To wrap this mess up, do not send your kid here if you're a parent or don't choose this SAT class if you're a student. I really wished I was being fooled on a prank show because I couldn't believe these people. That's it's ‍

While this course was reasonably priced, it did not meet my expectations. For a few reasons: (1)…read morethe course was fast paced; (2) the instructor (Professor Gary Cohen) was full of jokes and background information on the nature of the questions that he failed to really get to the depth of some of the problems; (3) the instructor did not offer offer much support before, during, or after the class; and (4) the companion book was ill-prepared with several errors. Had I not taken the LSAT before I would have been totally lost. I pity the students who were experiencing the material for the fist time. Several times throughout the classes the instructor did not seem sure of his answers and in many instances students pointed this out. I feel that students were either too intimidated or ashamed to speak up. This class might be good for a brush up, but I would not recommend it as a prep class for students who are taking the LSAT for the first time. The on-line description for this course was full of hype. Not true at all!

Bonnie, Eric, and Susan asked thoughtful questions about our son to match him with the best tutor available. To say they succeeded would be an understatement. Natalie worked with Trey on his executive functioning skills, patiently showed him different ways of doing things, and supported him until his grades soared and he no longer needed help with Lit. In 10th grade, Geometry and Science challenged him, so we reached out to BCG for help in those subjects. Once again, they exceeded our expectations. Gerald, his Science tutor, teaches the same class in a nearby county and presents information differently than my son's teacher, works through several exercises to make sure our son understands the material, and makes suggestions of what he can do to stay on track until his next weekly session. Dan, our son's Geometry tutor, might be an angel in disguise. Thanks to his guidance and explanations, our son excitedly refreshes his Infinite Campus app to see how well he did on quizzes and tests instead of dreading the grades being posted. (Truly, he's excited to check his grades; what teen gets excited about anything other than sleeping in!?) We're incredibly grateful to have found BCG and know that, if our son needs tutoring in other subjects, BCG will find the right tutor who understands how our son learns and help him succeed in his classes.

Janine was wonderful to work with -- accommodating with schedule changes, amazing with communications, and absolutely perfect to work with Ryleigh. Janine and Ryleigh worked on whatever was needed at the time: math, literature, economics. Janine also listened to me, and we supported each other 100%. Ry was more open to telling Janine due dates and what they were working on versus telling me. And, Bonnie -- the founder / owner is also amazing to work with. Bonnie was there to support us at every step. Bonnie and Janine both write lovely notes for Ry at graduation -- and I cannot thank them enough.

I interviewed over 10 counseling companies and none knew bs/md the way moon prep does. I was very impressed how every counselor on the team has extensive knowledge in this area. Truly, this is what the company is known for. Competitors gave vague answers and I could tell this was not their specialty at all. Bs/md programs are expensive, a private school can cost $75k a year and times that by 7 or 8 years for bs/md program. So I do not recommend trying to skimp on the help your child needs to get into this type of competitive program. It's more than worth the money to hire a professional counselor to guide your child. My son was accepted to numerous bs/md programs and with scholarships too. We are thrilled.

Don't waste your money here.

I finally reached someone and they told me just to keep looking, they gave me a few suggestions of where to try but they were all an hour + away. Once I finally found one, I'd gotten 10 hours done at the office already and received an email saying I'd been dropped from the program. I called and they told me there was a time limit on when I could complete the externship, even though that had never been mentioned to me and I'd already been told to keep looking for an office. I called and asked if since I'd been dropped if I could get my money back, since I'd already wasted 9 weeks and $4,000 on this course. They were extremely rude on the phone and told me I could not have a refund nor could I receive an extension, so I'm just out $4000. Not to mention I never received the scrubs I paid for, and I had to email them reminding them I'd never received a lab kit that was promised on the website. I also went for the X-ray certification at this school and the instructor wasn't there, so all the students waited hours just to be told to go home and come back next week, and the next week the instructor was an hour late for the course. The course is basically all online and you do all the work yourself, and then go to what is supposed to be a 6 hour course, but you only stay for an hour and don't learn anything. Everyone is extremely nice when you're going to sign up, and as soon as you get in you won't be able to receive any help or answers. Don't waste your money. I'm out $4000 with nothing to show for it.
