DOUBLE800 -

Susana Pesci

My daughter love double 800! It was a great way that help her to get ready and well prepared to take the SAT. It introduced her to the test format and gave her experience to take the exam. It allowed my daughter to score over 1500 on the SAT!
Doing this course was a great experience for my daughter!

I highly recommend Micah for PSAT and SAT preparation. He did an excellent job of engaging my child in the learning process, which meant my child was happy to do the homework and take responsibility for his learning. My child genuinely looked forward to each session! His scores increased from already high levels, which ultimately is the desired result. Thank you Micah!

I took the Double800 course right before my PSAT, and I couldn't be happier with that result. Because of the course, I reached a perfect score of 240, up 31 points from my sophomore year score! I took the SAT I the next month and was very pleased with that, too. I scored 2260 overall: 790 in math, 780 in critical reading, and 690 in writing.

The best part of the class for me was the structured approach that went section by section, with many practice problems. The course gave me the means and incentive to practice all parts of the test, which I found was the secret to improving my scores. I don't know what the SAT inventors were thinking when they claimed students couldn't study for their little "reasoning test." Double800 was a really smart choice. And now, because of my scores, I have many great scholarship opportunities.

For many years, we had heard wonderful things about Double800 from the administrators at our childrens’ school, as well as fantastic reviews directly from parents we know well who had older students who had benefited greatly from Double800’s programs for both the PSAT and SAT.

But its one thing to hear and trust those recommendations and another to have direct experience with Double800 like we did via our son. He’s a bright and hardworking kid but who, like many 15-year-olds, sometimes needs a push 🙂 Double800 was that positive push (and more,) providing him both the framework and instruction that would lead to significant success on both the PSAT and SAT.

That’s when we turned to Double800. Beyond the results, what surprised us the most was how much our son actually came to enjoy and value the Double800 program. He quickly came to his own conclusion that the Double800 instructors were terrific, supportive and helpful. He saw immediate value in the Double800 approach and methodology as he learned how to quickly identify and attack different types of questions; also learning valuable time management skills for the exams. Finally, he begrudgingly admitted that by being in the Double800 program, he thought that he was far better prepared (both in terms of time on task and quality of invested effort) than he would have been preparing for the PSAT and SAT on his own. At the risk of sounding pedantic, this was key. we know what it’s like to get teenagers to do something because they have do, versus wanting to or at least embracing it with a positive attitude. While no one can (or should) get happy or excited about investing the time to prepare for these exams, Double800 found the way with our son - and with the countless other students we know personally - to make the process far more painless and far more enjoyable than it normally is.

Ultimately though, its about the results: In 9th grade our son’s PSAT score was a respectable 1350. But after Double800, his qualifying 11th grade PSAT score was a 1490 (out of 1520); his math and writing sub-scores were perfect. That score translated into a National Merit Statistical Index Score of 221 — which will likely qualify him as a National Merit Semi-Finalist for our state which automatically unlocks substantial scholarship dollars at universities and colleges around the country that more then offset Double800’s reasonable rates.

Fast forward a month, our son continued to prepare for the SAT for the first time with Double800’s support. He scored a 1550 (out of 1600); 790 math and 760 verbal. While clearly a really good score, our son felt that based on all of the work he had done as part of the Double800 program, that it would make sense to take the test again since he felt he could do even better. This was entirely his decision — something that shocked us — something that we credit exclusively to the positive experiences he had working with Double800.

We continue to hear so many similar Double800 success stories from parents and friends who have leveraged Double800 on behalf of their kids. Our own direct experience with Double800 tells us that we were incredibly fortunate to be able to have had our son sign up for the program. We believe in Double800 so much that we will be automatically signing up our youngest child in a few years.

Suffice it to say, we could not recommend Micah and Double800 more highly, unconditionally and without reservation, to any parent and student who wants to to move the needle on their PSAT and SAT performance. Double800’s reputation is well deserved and earned.

My daughter studied with Double800, and Micah helped her boost her score by 110 points from an already good score in the 1400's. In fact, she didn't double 800, but she did single 800! The techniques she learned really made a difference! Double800 knows its stuff, and knows how to teach it. She really enjoyed the class too.

After debating for a few weeks if our daughter should attend the class, we finally decided to sign her up. She ended up increasing her score by 140 points over her initial SAT score. There is no doubt that Micah's instruction was the reason why. I would highly recommend it to anyone.

Great course! Very valuable materials and closely connected with the actual tests. The classes helped me get both high SAT and PSAT scores, allowing me to qualify as a National Merit Semifinalist this year. I would definitely recommend it for anyone out there looking to boost their scores!
