The University of Georgia test prep advantage:

Innovative, one-of-a-kind curricula: UGA test prep classes are designed by professional test item writers, with years of experience writing questions for the very tests they prepare you for! Only UGA test prep classes teach you how to look at the tests through the eyes of a test writer, for unparalleled insight into the questions and an edge no other test prep company can match. All class sessions are in PowerPoint, making them super-efficient and perfectly clear. You will learn twice as fast as with standard, write-on-the-board classes. And all classes use only real test questions so that you know just what to expect on test day.

Instructors with years of test prep experience: Every UGA test prep instructor has at least five years of standardized test teaching experience. Your instructor will be a test prep pro who not only “aced” the test but who also has helped hundreds of students reach their standardized testing goals!

Small classes for personalized attention: Most UGA test prep classes have fewer than 15 students, and classes are capped at 25 students to ensure that every student gets the individualized attention that he or she deserves.

24/7 student support: Not only will your instructor be available outside of class to answer any question you may have, you can talk to the class designers directly! Every UGA test prep student has the cell phone number and the email address of the person who designed their test prep class, so that whenever you have a question you can go straight to the source!
