IMPORTANT
Scores will not improve merely because a student attends the boot camp. Students are expected to practice what they have learned, thoroughly memorize the cheat sheets, complete the assigned homework, and attempt practice tests under timed conditions to see a score improvement. Success on the test is entirely about hard work. The boot camp gives students and parents the tools and the glide path to the target score, but it is the student's focused practice and relentless work that will cause the ascent to the target score. Parents are strongly encouraged to have a conversation about the student's commitment to the work involved and their own expectations before registering for the boot camp. While students who complete the assigned work can benefit from attending the boot camp closest to their target test date, a longer window between the boot camp and the test date is strongly recommended, especially during the busy school year. Ideally, parents and students should plan on a 6-8-week window between the boot camp and the test date during the school year so that students have adequate time to master the content and strategies as well as internalize the techniques taught at the boot camp.
FAQs
What should students bring to the event?
Students should bring a notebook, a calculator (preferably the one they will use on test day), and writing instruments. Earphones/headphones/Air Pods are also important to prevent acoustic feedback caused by computer speakers that will compromise the student's ability to listen and participate.
What happens if internet outage or technological issues on PrepAccelerator's side cause a part of the SAT/PSAT Boot Camp to be cancelled?
We will make every reasonable effort to restore our internet connection and resume the boot camp immediately. However, if the outage persists, class will be cancelled for that session or the remainder of that day. PrepAccelerator will make a recorded version of the missed portion available to students for a limited time.
My student will have to miss a session. Will you be providing a
recording and materials for the missed session? If not, how does my
student make up the session?
We do NOT provide a recording
or class notes for the missed session as the material is strictly
proprietary. We recommend planning early and registering for the boot
camp only if your student is able to attend the entire event.
CODE OF CONDUCT
We have zero tolerance for rude or condescending behavior or communications
from parent or student. This will result in the entire family being
barred immediately from this and all future PrepAccelerator events and
blocked from all PrepAccelerator communications. Please understand that we enforce this policy very strictly when you register for any of our events.
