A 100-point score increase in just TWO WEEKS—and it started with strategies that felt completely unnatural. The 7-week SAT Master Class with Dr. Shaan Patel has been a genuinely eye-opening experience. With 100+ SAT strategies covered throughout the course, I’ve learned not only how to approach different types of questions, but also how to recognize the thought process behind the test-makers’ decisions. Each session has given me something new to try, and I’ve started approaching the SAT with a lot more intention than I did before. I was especially skeptical of some of the strategies at first—hiding the stopwatch and never taking my pencil off the page sounded like a good way to waste time rather than save it. But Dr. Patel’s persistence in explaining exactly why each strategy works made me willing to step outside my usual approach and actually test them for myself. Less than two weeks later, I had gained and maintained a 100+ point increase. I’ve already recommended PrepExpert to FIVE OTHER JUNIORS taking the SAT this year, and the course hasn’t even ended yet! I’m excited to keep putting these strategies into practice as I work toward my goal of a perfect 1600. If you’re serious about improving your SAT score, then forget about all the "free SAT bootcamps" and Instagram advertisements and join PrepExpert's 7-Week Founder's Course.

I took the 7 week founder course with Dr. Patel and it was honestly the best SAT review I have ever used. The lessons were very thorough and I had an enjoyed learning about the new strategies. Dr. Patel himself was also very impressive: he was very patient and answered all of our questions. I only came for something to help me tweak my score and I was a bit skeptical. However, I still gave it my best shot and I feel like I have improved a substantial amount and I am ready to tackle the upcoming test this Saturday.

I took the 7 Week Course with Dr. Patel and it was absolutely amazing. I found that while the work was challenging, it wasn’t overwhelming and I was able to balance it with my other summer activities like my biology research and volunteering. He teaches various strategies; My favorites were in writing, grammar, and using Desmos efficiently in math, and with the weekly practice test and other homework assignments gave us plenty of opportunities to use these strategies. I found that this course was accessible to students of all skill levels and abilities– although I’m personally a rising 11th grader, I would have been able to understand his problem solving methods even if I had only taken lower levels of math and english in school. Even though the classes are long, well-timed breaks and allocation of time prevented me from losing attention and becoming distracted. One minor downside is that sometimes we were unable to review all the questions I wanted in full or at all, but thankfully the questions also come with explanations that you can read independently and recordings of each class are posted, which was a lifesaver when I unfortunately had to miss one. Overall, my score improved from 1470 to 1540, which shocked me because I had never passed 1500 before. I went from struggling in English to only getting 1-2 questions wrong in that section. I would definitely recommend the 7 Week Course to anyone trying to quickly improve their score.

My instructor, Dr. Shaan Patel was engaging and efficient in his teachings throughout the 7-week founder course. Coming into this course with a lack of preparation, I was able to catch up quickly thanks to Dr. Patel. Each class felt informative and memorable, as he went in depth with helpful tips and strategies that helped me save more time when practicing on my own. I quickly learned how to narrow down my answers in a matter of seconds and use my resources more efficiently. With clear, organized explanations and examples that were easy to understand, Dr. Shaan Patel helped my score and confidence grow in such a short period of time. This course is extremely helpful for everyone, regardless of previous experience and preparation. I highly recommend this course to anyone looking to stay efficient and boost their SAT score.

I am a rising sophomore who had so many questions when I first took the 7 Week Founder's Course with Dr. Shaan. He help me answer all of those questions and really put the interest in learning. He helped us make lifestlye changes as well, showed us secret strategies not shown anywhere, and helped me build confidence for this gruesome test. He is a decorated veteran of the SAT who achieved a perfect score and is helping so many other students achieve the same. He recognized students throughout the course and even had some light-hearted moments of genuine connection with his students unlike most others, who are always so super serious. He employed a very good usage of the pomodoro method to keep students' brains sharp and to retain their attention. The Unlimited Prep package has such great value, with access to so many of his resoures. His classes are truly worth it and provides students with an effectively enjoyable atmosphere of learning.

The 7-Week Founder Course with Dr. Shaan Patel was absolutely phenomenal. Dr. Patel’s insight on core SAT strategies, as well as new approaches to the test, helped me gain a much better grasp of both the SAT and types of questions it asks. Specifically, I learned how to use strategies such as plugging equations into Desmos for challenging math questions and ignoring unnecessary appositive phrases and prepositional phrases in Reading and Writing questions. These strategies along with many others made higher level SAT questions seem less daunting. As a result, I was able to work through more complex questions much more quickly while still feeling very confident in my answers. Beyond the individual strategies, I truly appreciated Dr. Patel’s patience and the unique way he broke down each practice question into comprehensible parts. With each strategy I learned, I found myself becoming more and more efficient in answering SAT questions, and my testing anxiety gradually diminished. After taking this course, I feel much more confident and prepared going into the SAT. Overall, I would recommend this course to anyone looking to improve their SAT score and learn strategies that apply not only to the SAT, but also to studying, time management, and learning as a whole. Thank you so much, Dr. Patel!

When I started this course, I was scoring in the 1300s. Seven weeks later, I was scoring above 1500, and my score improved after every single class. What made the experience even more impressive was that I genuinely enjoyed the process. Dr. Patel has a great personality, and his classes felt less like being taught and more like having someone explain how to actually think through problems. I was always engaged and genuinely excited for the next class. The course also gave us an incredible amount of high-quality practice and review material, including accurate College Board tests, extremely challenging math quizzes using some of the hardest questions from different modules, vocabulary quizzes, and math, reading, and writing cheat sheets packed with useful tips. One of the most valuable strategies I learned was BOSS (Build Own Simple Solutions). Instead of immediately looking at the answer choices and getting stuck debating between two or three options, you first create your own solution after reading the passage and question, then use the choices to find the answer that matches it. This completely changed how I approached Reading, and I credit it with a large part of my improvement in that section. By the end, I had become so much more confident that even some of the hardest SAT questions started feeling like medium-level questions. What surprised me most was how much the course affected me outside of the SAT. Dr. Patel also emphasized habits like exercise and nutrition that can support focus and cognitive performance. We were challenged to delete social media for the seven weeks, only using it for one hour on a designated weekend day. I ended up breaking my habit of constantly scrolling, getting multiple hours of my day back, and eventually not even wanting to redownload the apps. My screen time dropped by several hours, and that change has stuck with me beyond the course. Going from the 1300s to consistently above 1500 while genuinely looking forward to every class is something I never expected when I started. This course didn’t just teach me how to take the SAT, it changed how I approached difficult problems, studying, and even my daily habits. I genuinely can’t think of a better use of seven weeks for someone serious about improving their score, and it was absolutely worth my time.

SUPER VALUABLE TEST PREP! — I have just completed the 7-week SAT Founder Course with my SAT test date in 2 days, and I just feel so confident and prepared. Dr. Patel was my tutor, and he was super understanding, patient, and efficacious in his teaching. He went over key strategies that I have never heard in any other test prep class I have taken before (some even included strategies that go beyond the SAT!!! Insane!) that gave me so many more insights into taking this test head-on. There is a plethora of outside-of-class material for students that helps you learn to go beyond simply listening in class and become self-sufficient enough to be productive without it, too. Overall, I have gained crucial skills that I will not only apply to the SAT but throughout my entire academic career. Thanks, Prep Expert, for the 7-week Founder Course!

I have taken two Prep Expert SAT courses, and I can confidently say that the 7-Week Founder SAT Course with Dr. Shaan Patel has been the best SAT preparation experience I have had. I originally took Prep Expert’s 6-Week Flagship Course earlier this year, which helped me raise my official SAT score to a 1450. I returned this summer because I wanted to challenge myself to improve even further. However, I did not expect that by the end of these seven weeks, I would improve not only as an SAT test taker, but also in my ability to study effectively. One of the biggest things that made Dr. Patel’s course stand out was how much we learned beyond SAT content. He taught us about focus, discipline, study techniques, and general test-taking strategies that I can apply far beyond one exam. Instead of only teaching us how to answer individual questions, he helped us understand how to approach studying and testing more effectively as a whole. One of the most useful techniques I learned was the Pomodoro Method. Before this course, I could sit down intending to study for hours but struggle to remain completely focused. Breaking my studying into periods of concentrated work followed by intentional breaks made a significant difference in my ability to focus. I began incorporating the Pomodoro Method into my independent SAT preparation, and it helped me study more efficiently without feeling as overwhelmed. This is something I plan to continue using throughout school and eventually college. I also loved that Dr. Patel participated in the seven week Turn Off the Tech and Social Media Challenge alongside us. Rather than simply telling us that our phones were distracting, he challenged us to actually change our habits and did it with us. It made me much more aware of how easily technology can interrupt my concentration and how much more productive I can be when I intentionally remove distractions. I never expected an SAT course to change the way I thought about my everyday study habits, but this one did. The SAT strategies themselves were also incredibly helpful, especially because many of them were different from what I had learned in the Prep Expert course I took earlier this year. One strategy that particularly stuck with me was Dr. Patel’s advice to “fake interest” in Reading and Writing passages. Instead of approaching a passage already thinking that it was boring or difficult, I started deliberately acting as though I was genuinely interested in what I was reading. It sounds simple, but changing that mindset helped me stay engaged with passages, understand what I was reading more carefully, and avoid zoning out. Reading and Writing eventually became one of my strongest areas, and I reached a 770 on the section in practice. Dr. Patel also gave us valuable general test-taking advice about managing time, eliminating answers, recognizing patterns, maintaining focus, and approaching difficult questions without becoming overwhelmed. I appreciated that these strategies were not presented as shortcuts. He explained why they worked and combined them with the importance of practice and discipline. As I used them more often, I became more intentional about how I approached questions instead of simply relying on instinct or choosing an answer because it “sounded right.” The amount of practice throughout the course allowed me to put these strategies into action and identify where I still needed to improve. I consistently scored in the mid-1400s on practice tests, reached a 1460 overall in Prepexpert and a 1540 in Bluebook Tests. Additionally, I earned individual section scores as high as a 770 in Reading and Writing and a 760 in Math. While I am proud of those numbers, the improvement I value most cannot be represented by a score alone. I am more focused when I study, more aware of how I use my time, more strategic when I take tests, and more capable of recognizing and learning from my mistakes. Dr. Patel was also an incredible instructor. A three hour SAT class could easily feel exhausting, but he kept the lessons engaging and made difficult concepts feel much more approachable. I especially appreciated that he practiced many of the habits he encouraged us to develop. Whether he was participating in the technology challenge with us or explaining the reasoning behind a strategy, it felt like he genuinely wanted us to develop skills that would help us beyond test day. Prep Expert helped me raise my official SAT score to a 1450, and the Founder Course has prepared me to aim even higher on my August SAT. But when I think about what I gained from these seven weeks, the biggest result is not just a number. I learned how to focus when something does not immediately interest me, how to structure my study time, how to limit distractions, how to approach difficult tests strategically, and how to make the hours I spend studying actually count. I enrolled in the Founder Course because I wanted to increase my SAT score. I am leaving with something much more valuable: the ability to study more effectively, approach challenges more strategically, and take greater control over my own learning. A higher SAT score may have been the reason I signed up, but becoming a better student is the reason I am so grateful that I did.

Mr. Shaan Patel's 7-Week Founder SAT Course has been so beneficial to me and my SAT studying journey this summer. I remember when I first took an SAT practice test earlier in June, I scored a 1390. Mr. Patel's insights and strategies were insanely helpful for me to pull ahead and improve my SAT game overall. Now at August end, I am consistently scoring 1500+ on every SAT practice assessment I take. The course and other adjacent self-paced courses have completely changed my outlook on how to solve each and every problem on the SAT. In fact, the three hours spent on Tuesdays and Thursdays flew by because of how engaging and well structured each class was—even with plenty of time for homework review at the end! There was seldom a moment when I felt bored during each session with Mr. Patel. What surprised me even more is how this course not only changed my SAT test taking skills, but also my general English and math skills as well. Mr. Patel has clarified and taught me several core writing concepts that have noticeably made my writing better. Even in math, I have learned incredibly useful shortcuts and strategies in both geometry and algebra that will serve me well in not only the SAT, but other standardized tests to come. When I do get my official score back from College Board, I know I will have Mr. Patel to thank for it. Thank you Prep Expert!

I took the 7-week Founder SAT Course with Dr. Shaan Patel, MD, MBA. He has such a great motivation to teach his students, and all around it was evident that his course helped students with major score improvements. He really put in so much hard work to help his students reach real success. He even deleted all social media for the class and inspired others to do so as well. There were students at the beginning of the class who had scores of around 1120, such as me when the course first started. His calm and appealing approach to handle students and reaffirm understanding helped raise those scores to around 1560 with major score improvements. The strategies that are taught at PrepExpert are without a doubt very robust and not found with any other test prep companies. We are also taught strategies to improve our lifestyle and to conquer any standardized test. We are not just taught how to take the test, but to beat the test and catch traps that many students fall into. Dr. Shaan has truly accomplished a brilliant feat in the test prep department with these distinct strategies and he has some really great people behind him. The teaching assistants were always rapidly answering questions and the customer service team was always so easily accessible through the very easy texting service. They responded with urgency and held up to very high standards. This course clarifies so many questions and refines your knowledge. I know that many more students such as me will continue to reach success with PrepExpert!

My time in the 7-week course with founder and instructor Dr. Shaan Patel was likely the most impactful seven weeks of my life. I learned so much from him, whether it was original strategies for the SAT or life lessons that I will carry with me far beyond test day. As for the SAT, Dr. Patel teaches so many unique strategies that I have not seen in other courses or in my own preparation. These strategies have evidently improved my score significantly, taking my practice test score from 1260 all the way up to 1540. I especially enjoyed learning the BOSS strategy. I often struggled with the reading section of the SAT, but this new perspective on approaching reading questions made it much clearer how I can get to the correct answer without letting outside biases confuse me. Additionally, strategies such as PIN and the use of Desmos made math problems much easier to tackle without having to spend unnecessary time doing the heavy algebra required for some problems. Not only did I significantly improve my SAT abilities, but I also learned so much about how to approach learning and overcome challenges going forward. Dr. Patel taught us many general strategies on how to be good test-takers, improve our studying habits, and prepare effectively for important goals. Now that I've learned how to study and prepare more efficiently, I know these lessons will help me succeed as a high schooler, a college student, and a lifelong learner. Lastly, the entire course was incredibly well-guided, with thoughtfully structured homework schedules that thoroughly prepare a student for the SAT. Dr. Patel went at a great pace so that the workload wasn't overwhelming, but sufficient to give us the practice and time necessary to improve. Overall, I believe that this is the best and most valuable SAT preparation course that I have ever taken. The combination of Dr. Patel's original strategies, effective course structure, and valuable life lessons made these seven weeks an experience that will benefit me far beyond the SAT. I would highly recommend this course to anyone who wants to seriously improve their score and learn to become a better test-taker.

I started this course with a 1310 practice SAT score and, after taking Dr. Patel’s 14 class SAT Founders prep course, I’ve improved to a 1520 on my practice tests! What makes that improvement especially meaningful to me is that this was the first SAT preparation I had ever seriously done, and I relied on this course as my primary source of preparation, all thanks to Dr.Patel. Dr. Patel is an amazing instructor! He has a way of taking concepts and strategies that initially seem complicated and breaking them down into incredibly simple, practical, and effective methods. His strategies, especially PIN, TAC, and BOSS, have genuinely changed the way I approach the SAT. I find myself using them on literally every practice test, and they have made me much more confident and efficient when solving problems. Additionally, I was able to understand the format of the SAT and how to think like the test creators in order to ace it, which entirely changed my approach towards the test, helping me feel significantly more prepared. Beyond the classes themselves, I’ve received an incredible amount of resources, support, practice, and guidance. There is so much material available that I honestly don’t feel like I need to look anywhere else for SAT preparation. The course gave me not only the knowledge to improve my score, but also the confidence to trust my own abilities. I’m taking the SAT this Saturday, and I genuinely feel ready to walk into that test fully prepared. That feeling is something I absolutely would not have had when I started at a 1310. Dr. Patel’s teaching and support have played a huge role in getting me to this point. What surprised me most is that this course goes beyond simply teaching SAT tricks. It encourages better habits for learning, problem solving, discipline (the 7 week social media challenge lol), and approaching challenges-skills that I know will continue to help me in college and beyond the SAT. I am SO glad I made the decision to take this course. It has been an investment in myself that was worth every second of the time and money I put into it. I couldn’t be more grateful for everything I’ve learned, and I’m genuinely excited to put it all into practice on test day!

PrepExpert’s Founders Course with Dr. Shaan Patel was honestly one of the best learning experiences I’ve had in high school. I learned so many new strategies—like Boss, Pin, Fake Interest, and the Desmos shortcuts—that I had never heard of before. Dr. Shaan Patel explains everything in a really smooth and easy way, and the repetition actually helped me remember the techniques and use them confidently. The teaching assistants were also super helpful and always answered my questions. And whenever I needed extra support, the online office hours made it really easy to get more explanations. Because of this course, I feel way more confident with confusing math problems and long reading and writing questions. The strategies even helped me with regular schoolwork and everyday problem‑solving. I improved my score by 400 points, which still feels unbelievable. Thank you to everyone at PrepExpert for giving me such a great learning experience. I can’t wait to take more courses here, and I’m definitely recommending this to all my peers.

The Seven-Week Founders Course by Dr. Shaan Patel was truly a life-changing experience. With a starting score of 1200, I was able to improve my score to 1450. The aspect of Dr. Patel’s instruction that impacted me the most is the clear explanations that were provided for even the most challenging SAT questions. He would go back to those that I had difficulties with and would show me how to solve them in a different way when requested. And, the moment when I understood the solution was the moment when I realized what I was supposed to do and how the question should be solved, which is an amazing feeling. The strategies that were taught not only helped increase my SAT score but also gave me more confidence while approaching various types of questions on the SAT. I would strongly recommend this course to anyone seeking to improve one's SAT performance.

The 7-week founder course with Dr. Shaan Patel was exceptional and exceeded my expectations! Studying for the SAT is not an easy task, and becomes even harder when you don't have a structured course to approach it. The 7-week Founder Course is the solution to this problem, putting all of the content you need to successfully study for the SAT into a neat, organized, comprehsive course made up of 100+ strategies. This course taught me KEY insights and strategies that significantly improved my SAT score, and I truly can’t imagine preparing for the SAT without PrepExpert guiding me along the way. Before the 7-week Founder Course, I had barely used Desmos and wasn’t aware of how helpful it could be on the SAT. Dr. Shaan Patel taught several strategies to implement it, ultimately raising my math score by 100+ points. Aside from Desmos, we learned so many more valuable math strategies that contributed to improving my score. Whether you are strong or weak in math, this course offers a full review of fundamental concepts as well as specific strategies to approach ALL types of difficult SAT questions. On top of this, (yes it gets better!) the reading/writing strategies changed my entire perspective on this SAT section. I used to approach this section by guessing, making assumptions, and answering what simply sounded best. Instead, Dr. Shaan Patel taught us a variety of strategies to approach this section, and make logical decisions rather than guessing. Since taking this course, I now approach the SAT reading sections with confidence in my answer choices. The 7-week Founder course is a MUST for anyone wanting to improve their SAT score! I have no doubt that anyone who takes the 7-week Founder Course will achieve the score they are hoping for.

I first heard of Prep Expert through the monthly introductory webinars hosted by founder and instructor Dr. Shaan Patel. Due to his unmatched credibility and expertise in test-taking and core strategies, my family and I thought it would be a great fit for me to become an Unlimited Prep member, so I could access any course I wanted to attend. The first class I attended was the 7-Week Founder SAT Course with none other than instructor Dr. Shaan Patel. Throughout those weeks, I improved my SAT score by more than 300 points thanks to the effective lessons taught to us each class. Moreover, Dr. Patel's course was designed in a way that was not only effective but engaging as well, making the overall experience something I genuinely enjoyed and looked forward to. Additionally, what stood out to me about Prep Expert wasn't just the way they explained the questions, but the way we approached each problem with worthwhile strategies that could make a question that initially seemed intimidating way easier to solve. Strategies such as BOSS, PIN, and KISS helped me build confidence in answering questions, recognizing patterns, and drastically improving my test-taking skills. That being said, my experience throughout these weeks was MUCH more than just improving my score. It was what built my overall confidence and my consistency in my approach to the SAT. Thanks to the GOAT, Dr. Patel, and the rest of the Prep Expert team, I improved significantly in a skill that seemed difficult to approach at first. My 300-point improvement didn't just change my SAT score-it helped me build an amazing foundation to rely on for the future.
