SAT Results - McElroy Tutoring
In the spring of 2005, Brian McElroy taught a series of SAT prep courses in Point Loma, California. The purpose of these classes was to help McElroy students find an affordable way to prepare for the SAT, and to impartially quantify student score improvements using Brian's self-created SAT Preparation curriculum. (All students were required to take 4 full proctored diagnostic SATs using tests from the Official Guide to the SAT.) The average combined improvement for these 3 clases of students was 254 points!
