SAT I (math, critical reading and writing):
Our SAT I prep program includes math, critical reading (and vocabulary), writing (and grammar), for a total of 7 weeks and 3 4-hour simulation tests. Each subject, math, critical reading and writing, can be taken separately to serve your specific needs. Each subject taken will have a free simulation test. However, a good price discount is provided if students take 3 subjects together. All sessions include baseline SAT tests in first classes, and final progress assessments at 4-hour simulation exam. All SAT I classes are independent lessons which contain lecture for certain topics. They can be like algebra I, geometry, algebra II, possibility and combination for math; vocabulary, reading comprehension, analytical thinking for critical reading; and commonly seen grammar patterns or errors, 25-min timed essay writing for writing.
ALC provides many tips to our students on how to solve SAT math problems easily and quickly. We give very helpful directions on how to comprehend for critical reading and structure writing as well. Though every SAT I test is different, the content of its questions are very similar to what they have been tested in many years. According to historical statistics, the average improvement for writing and grammars is usually at around 120 points for students took the SAT class from our teachers. ALC writing includes SAT "frequently tested" grammars and "carefully edited" essay writing. We uses many real SAT I essay topics. Since UCs require students to take an English placement test (Subject A) if their writing score is below 680. This class can definitely help the students to go beyond. Our Math prep class is expected to provide a very high improvement. If students enter at around 600 points, they can leave our classrooms possibly at 750. Math and science subjects are always easier to show results, comparing to effort needed for language arts. Students should be very familiar and comfortable with the SAT math questions, and should utilize the saved time to rest. Critical reading has been always very difficult to improve. There are thousands of vocabularies that students have to memorize, and analytical skills, critical thinking would take even longer time to accumulate. However, our critical reading classes should result in a 80 points improvement. Our teachers will design their own vocabulary quizzes, reading tips and analytical strategies to overcome the obstacles in the test and to help our students to perform better.
