I had Dr. Shaan Patel for my 7 week founder's SAT course. After completing his 7 week course, I feel a lot more confident in my reading and writing, which was my weak point heading into the course. He explained all the questions very thoroughly and I enjoyed being in his class. Not only did he present many strategies to improve the score for the SAT such as the BOSS strategy or the "kiss of death" phrases, Dr. Patel himself also took part in the strategies for improving the score for the SAT, such as limiting social media throughout the 7 week course, which I thought was an amazing way to get his students to follow his lead. All in all, he was a very engaging instructor, and I would love to take another one of his courses.

I am currently part of the 7-Week Founder Course, and I honestly could not be happier with my experience. Dr. Shaan Patel is an amazing instructor and does an incredible job explaining everything in a way that is easy to understand. He takes the time to break down every strategy, explain the reasoning behind it, and make sure students truly understand what they are learning. He is also very attentive to what students say and genuinely listens to questions and feedback. This course has been extremely helpful and has taught me so many valuable SAT strategies, tips, and tricks that I would not have known otherwise. I especially appreciate how practical the strategies are and how easy they are to apply when practicing. You can really tell how much effort and experience goes into the course, and Dr. Patel genuinely wants his students to succeed. If you are serious about improving your SAT score, I would highly recommend this program. The 7-Week Founder Course has already made me feel much more confident and prepared, and I am extremely grateful to have the opportunity to learn from Dr. Patel.

PrepExpert instilled not only the skills I needed to be confident in my skills when it came to the SAT but also helped me achieve the rigor and discipline I needed to maintain my study routine. My instructor was Dr Shaan Patel and I was apart of the 7 week course and I can say that my score went by 150 helping me reach my target scores of 1500+ from an original score of around a 1370. Not only are his classes very well taught and structured but the additional materials included such as the cheat sheets and practice tests also proved to be essential. Overall this class helped me gain the skills and confidence I needed to ACE the test and the course proved worth it allowing you to get the most bang for your buck!!!!

I recently took the Prep Expert 7-Week Founder Course, and it completely changed how I approach standardized tests. My instructor was Dr. Shaan Patel, and he was fantastic at breaking down complex questions into simple, manageable strategies. Before starting, my practice score was sitting right at 1000, but by the end of the program, I managed to boost my score by over 300 points to a 1320! What I liked most about the course was that it didn't just teach regular test material; it taught smart pattern recognition, time-management shortcuts, and ways to avoid common test traps. The lessons were engaging, practical, and gave me a massive boost in confidence. I would 100% recommend Prep Expert to anyone wishing to raise their score!

The 7-week SAT Founders Course with Dr. Shaan Patel was an incredible experience. From the very beginning, the classes felt super engaging and never like I was just sitting through another SAT prep class. Dr. Patel is extremely understanding and patient, and he always takes the time to explain a concept or strategy until everyone actually gets it. There is also a ton of practice throughout the course, and the explanations behind each question and strategy make everything feel logical rather than just something you have to memorize. The support outside of class was just as impressive. The support team is super responsive whenever you have a question or need help, which made the whole experience feel very personal. Most importantly, the strategies themselves are unlike anything I've found on YouTube. I started with a 1330 on Practice Test 1, and by the end of the course I scored a 1570. Seeing that kind of improvement in only seven weeks was something I honestly did not expect going into the course. I would absolutely recommend the SAT Founders Course to anyone who is serious about improving their score and wants a program where the instructors genuinely care about helping you succeed.

My experience in Dr. Shaan Patel’s Founders course completely changed the way I approached the SAT. I started with a real SAT score around 1310, and through the strategies, practice, and support from this course, I was able to improve to approximately a 1510 whichwas a 200-point increase. What made this course especially valuable was that Dr. Patel didn’t simply teach SAT content; he taught us how to think through the test strategically. Methods like Shoestring, BOSS, TAC, and PIN gave me concrete systems I could actually apply under pressure instead of relying on guessing or intuition. These strategies made difficult questions feel much more manageable and helped me become a faster, more confident test taker. The X Blocks were one of the most valuable parts of the program. I attended every single one because each session gave me another opportunity to ask questions, strengthen weak areas, and learn directly from Dr. Patel’s explanations. His ability to break down complicated questions and explain the reasoning behind the correct approach was incredibly insightful. I made a point of taking advantage of every X Block because I wanted to get everything I possibly could out of the course, and that consistency paid off. Looking back, the biggest difference between my 1310 and my 1510 wasn’t simply doing more practice problems, it was learning how to approach those problems differently. Dr. Patel gave me a structured way to recognize patterns, eliminate traps, manage my time, and stay composed when I encountered difficult questions.I also wanted to shout out Vishnu and Harsh. They were always there for me whenever I went to xblock and were super efficient at breaking down harsh questions for me. If you are willing to put in the work, attend the X Blocks, and genuinely apply what Dr. Patel teaches, this course can make a tremendous difference. I came into Founders hoping to improve my SAT score; I left with a completely different level of confidence and a 200-point improvement to show for it. I’m incredibly grateful to Dr. Patel and Prep Expert for helping me accomplish something that once felt out of reach.

I came into Prep Expert’s 7-Week Founder Course expecting seven weeks of SAT prep, but I ended up getting so much more out of the experience than I expected. By the end of the course, my SAT score had increased by 200 points, which honestly still feels a little crazy to say. The difference wasn’t just from doing more practice questions, it came from actually learning how to approach the test strategically. A huge part of that was having Dr. Shaan Patel as my instructor. He made the classes engaging and gave us strategies that I could actually remember and use when I was taking practice tests. The TAC method and PIN method became two of my favorite strategies because they gave me a much more structured way to approach questions instead of just staring at the answer choices and hoping something looked right. And then there was BOSS. I genuinely think BOSS changed the way I approach SAT questions. Before the course, I would sometimes see a difficult question and immediately assume it was going to take forever. Learning how to recognize what the question was really asking and approach it more efficiently completely changed that mindset. It’s one of those strategies that I know I’ll continue using even after I’m done with the SAT. The new Desmos tips were another huge highlight for me. There were so many moments when I realized that I had been making certain questions way harder than they needed to be. Learning how to use Desmos more effectively made some of the math questions feel significantly more manageable and helped me save time. It was one of those moments where I genuinely thought, “Why did nobody tell me this before?” What made Dr. Patel’s classes stand out to me, though, was that our conversations weren’t always strictly about the SAT. I especially enjoyed our conversations about deleting social media and how stepping away from it can actually change the way you spend your time and focus. I didn’t expect a SAT course to make me think about my habits outside of studying, but those conversations ended up being some of the most memorable parts of the course. I also really appreciated that the course didn’t feel like seven weeks of being told to simply “study harder.” I learned specific strategies, how to manage my time, how to recognize patterns in questions, and most importantly, how to approach the SAT with an actual plan. Seeing a 200-point improvement made it clear to me that the strategies weren’t just interesting, they worked. Overall, the 7-Week Founder Course was one of the most worthwhile experiences I’ve had with SAT prep. Dr. Shaan Patel made the course both informative and genuinely enjoyable, and I’m leaving with strategies that I’ll actually remember. Between TAC, PIN, BOSS, the Desmos tips, and all the conversations along the way, I definitely feel like I got more out of these seven weeks than just a higher score. Thank you PrepExpert and Dr. Patel!

I had a great experience completing Dr. Shaan Patel’s 7-week Prep Expert Founders Course. The course taught me effective SAT strategies while making the entire preparation process fun and engaging. The classes were entertaining, so instead of feeling like I was just sitting in a class studying, I actually looked forward to each lesson. One of the most valuable parts was learning specific strategies such as process of elimination, plugging in numbers when appropriate, recognizing common question types, and using time-saving approaches instead of overthinking questions. These strategies helped me answer questions faster and more efficiently while also making me more confident when taking practice tests. I also learned how important it is to study smarter rather than simply studying more. The structured practice and idea of eliminating distractions, especially social media, helped me become much more focused and disciplined with my time. Dr. Shaan Patel did an amazing job making the classes memorable while teaching strategies that actually worked. SAT preparation can be stressful and boring, but the engaging classes kept me motivated throughout the course. I especially liked how the strategies gave me a clear approach for different types of questions instead of just telling me to memorize more information. Because of the combination of these strategies, the structured study plan, and the discipline I developed, I was able to improve my SAT score by 180–240 points compared to my previous score, which was an amazing result. Overall, I would definitely recommend Dr. Shaan Patel’s 7-week Prep Expert Founders Course to anyone looking to improve their SAT score. The course was fun, helpful, and gave me the strategies, confidence, and discipline I needed to succeed. Would recommend.

I did the 7 week founder program with Dr.Shaan Patel. I feel like I learned a lot of new strategies that I've never seen anywhere else. I used to rely on ai or Instagram for SAT help other than books and it not only made my score go lower, but I never learned anything about test taking. Dr Shaan Patel did the opposite, he taught new strategies that he created from his previous studies. Not only does he teach SAT strategies, he adds on to teaching overall test taking strategies. It isn't boring or anything either because he implements the 50/10 learning method. Additionally, he encourages students to go without their social media for 7 weeks along with him. His overall teaching strategies have helped me and many others throughout the year. I also feel that the instructors are committed to making the students learn, not just memorize the facts. They have office hours outside of the 2 classes a week which proves how committed they are. I highly recommend Prep Expert to anyone who needs help with the SAT!

I had Dr. Shaan Patel as my instructor, the founder of PrepExpert. I really do enjoy how well Dr. Patel manages to teach nearly 600 students very well. It's by no means perfect but it's truly impressive on his end and I do feel like I retained a lot of skills to ace the SAT. I will state that you need to seriously put all your focus in this class because if you happen to miss one day of doing the homework, you end up falling really behind, which is what I suffered and I honestly think maybe a week of some sort of break in between each class would be very helpful. The course price is on the more expensive end of the spectrum, and there's not much of a gaurantee that you'll pass any of the exams as it's all on the student. I will say that this can offer some psychological stress to kids whose parents spent a lot of money for a course that solely depends on the student's ability to master these skills. Yet, I find that the material that PrepExpert goes over really does aid in mastering any CollegeBoard test. For example, one of the best strategies for me was B.O.S.S. (Building your own solution) for English related questions on the SAT. Essentially, you cover up the multiple choice answers, read the question and passage, and construct a hypothesis of what you think the answer is, and then you check the answers and you match your BOSS solution to the answer that best fits.

This 7 week founder course is ultimately a life changer when it came to the SAT. My testing skills are not so phenomal as I just wasn't a great test taker in general. However, learning to cope with different testing skills and strategies helped me take down this SAT way way easier than I would have never imagined. Ultimately letting me see this test as a game in a different lens. My first score prior to this course was a 1220, however with much help and homework behind the scenes, my score is now a 1380 and still improving. Getting to learn each strategy, ESPECIALLY BOSS, helped me to ease and control my testing while staying as efficicient as possible. Getting to really have a different perspective of the test allowed me to improve tremendously. My teacher, Dr. Shaan Patel, was the best instructor anyone could ask and definitely do not hesitate to take this course, you will never regret it!

TRULY TRANSFORMATIVE! Taking Dr. Shaan Patel's Founders Digital SAT Course was honestly one of the best decisions I made during my SAT prep. Dr. Patel isn't just teaching from a textbook. He's someone who scored a perfect 1600 himself and actually understands what it takes to close score gaps, and that shows in every lesson. His approach to breaking down each section was clear, strategic, and never felt rushed, even with the amount of material covered. What stood out most was how practical everything felt. Instead of just reviewing content, the course focused on test taking strategies I could immediately apply, like pacing, process of elimination, and how to approach the adaptive format of the digital SAT specifically. My score went from 1400 to 1470, a 70 point improvement, and I genuinely credit a lot of that jump to how the course was structured. I also appreciated being able to revisit lessons whenever I needed to. Some concepts took a couple of passes to really click, and having that flexibility made a huge difference instead of feeling like I only had one shot to absorb everything. If you're serious about improving your SAT score and want a course taught by someone who's actually mastered the test himself, I can't recommend Prep Expert's Founders Course with Dr. Shaan Patel enough.

Dr. Patel in his Founder SAT class was great. He was helpful and a lot of people loved his class. People are so interested in this class, over 100 people are in a SAT Founder Prep course on Discord, where we help each other out. He's pretty dope (which means he is cool) when it comes to locking in. I listened to him when he said to delete social media (my internet restrictions made this surprisingly easy), and I'm pretty much LOCKED IN. I haven't taken Algebra 2 yet (but I'm taking it as of me writing this), but all the tips we learned, especially on Desmos are sure to be of help in the future on my SAT. Thanks Dr. Patel!

Prep Expert is amazing. My instructor was Dr Shaan Patel himself, I first heard about him from my dad who was in a seminar from him advertizing to buy the course and later on, my dad and I decided we'd sign up for it. I missed the first two classes but on the third class Dr Shaan went over some of the things in the previous two classes including the strategies. About the strategies, all of them are new to me but super useful. At first my scores on the timed practice tests weren't doing so well but no one gets a high score on the first try. I love all these strategies, my score has improved little by little each practice test and I'm learning from my mistakes through the built in error log. I would totally recommend my younger cousins to this course so they get to know what to do about the SAT/ACT before taking it.

This course was great, i was able to boost my score around 300-400 points. I always struggled in the math section, but my instructor Shaan Patel helped me so much in how to read and understand the questions, not only for math but for english as well. I take the SAT in august and i feel prepared and ready for it. Shaan thought us so many tips and tricks that will definitely stick with me throughout how many times i take the SAT. My favorite thing for Math was learning the desmos tricks, making every question seem so much easier. In english, BOSS solutions really helped me with the questions. This course made me feel so much more confident on taking the SAT, I would definitely recommend my peers to take this course as it helped so much in not only mine, but probably everyone else’s.

Dr.Shaan Patel was one of the best instructors I’ve had on Prep Expert. I work pretty slow so I really liked and appreciated how slow he went when someone had a question, to really make sure everyone comprehended what he was teaching. My score increased a lot, more than 150 points. I just want to thank Dr.Shaan Patel and Prep Expert for helping me and everyone else with our SAT work and I would most definitely recommend anyone trying to improve their SAT scores to come here especially with Dr.Shaan Patel.

My instructor, Dr. Shaan Patel, distinguished himself through a methodical, strategy-driven pedagogy. Rather than relying on repetitive practice testing alone, he emphasized conceptual mastery: understanding the underlying logic of each question type, developing efficient pacing strategies, and cultivating the analytical skills necessary to approach unfamiliar problems with confidence. This emphasis on transferable reasoning skills, rather than rote memorization, was particularly valuable. The course structure itself was well-designed, progressing systematically through each section of the exam while reinforcing foundational concepts throughout. This scaffolded approach allowed for steady, measurable improvement rather than a superficial familiarity with test content. Ultimately, the combination of substantive instruction, clear methodology, and consistent practice produced a significant and durable improvement in performance. I would recommend this course to any student seeking a serious, well-structured approach to SAT preparation.

I had a great experience with Prep Expert, especially with my instructor, Dr. Shaan Patel. He is a very nice, understanding, and supportive mentor who genuinely wants his students to succeed. Unlike other founders, Dr. Patel focuses on making his students better rather than marketing, and he does this by showing us the same strategies and techniques he used to get a perfect score and new and improved strategies too. He clearly knows exactly what he is talking about and does a great job explaining the material in a way that is easy to understand. I also really appreciate how humble and appproachable he is, despite his experience and expertise. This course has helped me feel more confident in my test-taking skills; my score took a jump from consistent 1250-1350 to 1450+; and I would definitely reccomend Prep Expert to others.
