The SAT Summer Institute is a combination of live (in-person) and online tools to help students perform at their peaks on test day. Four online review sessions are held in the weeks leading up to the fall SAT test dates. In addition, weekly online office hours provide a convenient way for students to get individualized help with specific questions or concerns that they may have. Students need only high-speed internet access, speakers, and Adobe Flash Player to participate in the online sessions—no additional software is required.
The interactive, one-hour online review sessions allow students to participate and ask questions of our expert test prep instructors. The live-online review sessions are recorded—students can still benefit even if their schedules don't allow live participation. Review sessions will be scheduled between the end of the course and the fall test dates.
Online office hours are free-form meetings open to all participants from the SAT Summer Institutes. Instructors will be available to answer any questions that students might have. The sessions are "drop-in" and are student-directed, so there will not be a planned presentation for each session. Instead, our instructors will answer questions and work through problems in the order that they are received.
