Vince Kotchian Test Prep

I engaged Vince about 4 months into my GRE prep. Prior to working with Vince, I had worked with one…read moreother tutor that was much too formulaic in his approach to the test. Vince tutored me via Zoom. His remote setup enabled us to have productive exchanges as he was equipped with technology that facilitated easy learning. I'm including this in my review because my previous tutor did not possess the necessary technology to properly conduct remote learning. More importantly, Vince worked with me to apply focus to my GRE study, directing me to the right materials--I had previously only studied 3rd party material. He also helped me to stay on track with weekly study plans that matched my time commitment. In our 90 minute tutoring sessions, we spent our time mostly discussing verbal topics. Most valuable was that verbal discussions with Vince built the necessary experience that enabled me to understand how ETS presents the logic in the TC/SE questions types and what ETS is looking for when presenting their RC question types. As a native English speaker, I had to re-engineer how I read the passages and questions presented in the GRE. My tutoring sessions with Vince helped me acquire the test taking "finesse" in the verbal section that I needed to go from scoring in the 70th percentile (May 2021 test) to scoring in the 96th percentile (July 2021 test). If you have the resources, I strongly recommend connecting with Vince or at least consider taking his online Verbal GRE prep course. Finally, some general test-taking advice re: the GRE. The GRE is a game and you're there to play its 80 little puzzles. One of the best pieces of advice I got from Vince himself: "Be patient, build experience, and take your time with the test." This advice really resonated with me and I took it to heart, eventually attaining the score I wanted. So, to my fellow test taker: "Be patient, build experience, and take your time with the test."

I have come here twice for a couple of exams. Parking sucks, difficult to find a spot that isn't…read moretow away or reserved. The waiting area is decently clean. FYI just bring minimum with you because everything is going into a locker. Don't wear jewelry or anything. Phone gets turned off and into locker. Oh and no gum either. The testing room is quiet, the desk provided is small. It has a pack of new ear plugs or sound deadening headphones for use if wanted. The computer is improved from when I was there a year ago. The calculator has a history now which is nice. Also get an electronic writing pad to write items down on. My suggestion is to write things one might forget (equations, etc) on it for later use. The mouse is atrocious and distractingly terrible. It can get a little chilly sitting there but not too bad. Staff is nice, they are direct but nice. All in all okay experience here. I guess if one doesn't pass it might be a one star place. But that's not a reason to 1 star it.

Extremely disappointed with PSI Exams…read more I've now spent over $300 on three separate exam attempts, and each experience has been frustrating. My first exam was missed due to technical issues and a lack of timely support. My second attempt was terminated because I accidentally whispered part of a question after being told not to read questions aloud, even though that's how I process information during tests. I have a job offer waiting on me to pass this exam, and these issues have delayed my ability to move forward professionally. Now I'm paying for a third attempt and hoping I can finally complete the test without problems. I hope PSI will review my case and provide a refund for at least the first two attempts, especially the one affected by technical failures. This experience has been stressful and far below what I expected from a professional testing service.
