Advantage Testing is a superb organization staffed by dedicated, caring teachers who always put…read moretheir students' success first. They have developed strategies and studying methods which consistently boost test scores and student confidence across a wide spectrum of subjects at all levels. I have known the company's management since I was a student of theirs in the late 90s. The founders have made it their life's work to build a program that helps clients become better, more accomplished students; it's not just "test prep." I would wholeheartedly recommend Advantage Testing's services to any person looking to boost confidence in testing environments and in their academic careers in general.

Joe tutored me in 2008 for the LSATs and again in 2016 for the GMATs, and both times I found him responsive, flexible, and dedicated to helping me improve my scores. In both cases I found that Joe was able to zero in on the areas where I needed the most improvement, and as a result I received top scores on both tests. No idea what she's talking about with regard to his mannerisms, I found him to be a consummate professional at all times. Disregard the earlier review; this person obviously whiffed on the GRE and decided to take it out on her tutor.

C2 now claims my son used 302 hours and says the 10 hours might have been "bonus hours," so they can't be transferred. This was never clearly explained to us before. Very disappointed by the lack of transparency and poor customer service. If I could give 0 stars, I would.

C2 is so much more than just another tutoring service. At C2, the tutors and everyone else work as…read morea team to help you improve. They don't give you the general "set of skills" in whatever you're learning; they give you specialized and intensive training in the areas that you are the weakest in. During classes, you practice again and again on what you struggle on, and the tutors give really thorough and understandable explanations on your mistakes. They make learning easy and fun. Not only do you practice during sessions, you do homework (which is a huge part of the learning experience), and you take mock exams to see your personal improvement. I'm a former student and I needed help with the SAT critical reading section. I had Jacinth and Clara as my tutors. Quite frankly, they are the bomb. They're both super funny and relaxed. They make relevant examples to the material they're trying to explain and make it super easy to remember. The reading skills I learned not only helped me on the SAT, but also helped me greatly in AP English Literature. Jennifer, the director, is so nice. She takes cares of all of the students--she cares about you not only on your learning process, but also as a friend. Sometimes, when I'm in the area, I hop by C2 just to hang out. Overall, it's a really chill atmosphere where you get to develop your skills not just for that one test you're trying to take, but for life. I highly recommend C2 to all students!

Tdlr Average tutoring service at a high price. I went to…read morethe shsat prep program and got into stuyvesant. Despite this, I still believe that Merica and Mega are only average and that you can find the same information for much cheaper. Merica copies their packets from books and online sources. You can prove this by taking an hw passage and searching the article or questions. They don't only copy questions, but also copy outdated questions, from close to 20 years ago. You can get test prep from Barron's, Princeton Review, etc for far cheaper. However one of the disadvantages with self learning is that you'll have no one to ask if you don't understand a concept or question. With merica they have experienced teachers that have been teaching for decades at top high school and colleges.

I agree with and second reviewer John L.'s comments. This place is good for lazy people like myself…read morewho need the classroom experience to learn. None of their materials are original, and their teachers aren't spectacular, but they do work on the number 1 key to success on these tests: repetition. So in sum, if you are a self-starter, and are motivated enough at that age, you can probably skip this course. If you need to pick between this place and Kaplan/PR, go with this place --- they are a bunch of really smart Asians who get kids first into Hunter, then Stuyvesant, then Harvard, then Johns Hopkins Med School. These guys have their standardized testing methods down.

The Groupon states it's good for Saturdays only so I attempted to make an appointment for the girls during the summer on a Saturday. I was told the place was only open during the week during the summer to which I asked why do they sell it and advertise it as only good on Saturdays in June, but the person had no idea. Fast forward to last week, I call to schedule the Saturday class and am told they only accept Groupons on Sundays. Whatever. Yesterday, the day before the appointment, I get a call and they want to reschedule. I flat out refuse because I have plans for the day and a two hour difference would have a huge impact. We get there and the girls are painting. However, the instructor did most of it for them literally taking the brushes out of their hands and doing the painting. Then, as we're leaving, she gives me newspaper to protect my car seat and folds the newspaper over the paintings which got stuck to the wet paint and left paper residue on them. I took the girls back to my house and set them up with paint to fix the paintings and make them their own. I don't recommend this place at all. Don't offer an hour class, give the kids something that is too intricate to finish in that time and then do the painting for them.

I'm…read moregoing to be taking the GRE to go to grad school and the test itself is beyond overwhelming especially because I graduated a few years ago. I worked with Nicole for all 4 of my sessions and I've grown to love that girl. She was not only patient but she tried and did everything possible to help me learn and make me feel comfortable. She pushed me to find the answers that I thought I didn't know but deep down I did. It was such a great help and refresher for me and I know it helped me brush up on all the useless math they teach us and we never need in real life. I've been to both locations and the set up is cute. Both locations are a office within a building that they rent out. All types of markers, pencils, pens, etc are available for your use. White erase boards and paper -- you can sit or stand -- play your own music in the background while working. They have snacks available for you if you need it. They tutor for any age and I would recommend it to anyone who needs to help.
