“I don’t even know where to begin. All the problems just look so hard.”

“I keep running out of time. How am I supposed to answer 25 questions in 20 minutes?”

Every day, we receive dozens of distressed phone calls from students and parents. Whether a student feels insecure about math, or believes the reading portions of the SAT induce the sort of coma-like sleep one hopes to attain before major surgery, there is typically at least one aspect of the exam each student finds worrisome.

Thankfully, there is a solution.

What if you could have all of the questions on the test months in advance?

The SAT and ACT may be tricky exams, but they are astonishingly predictable in the questions they ask. Because Catalyst’s founder and tutors take the SAT multiple times per year, we have its exact content down to a science, and can predict, with one hundred percent accuracy, all the types of questions that are likely to appear on each exam.

Like success in the game of chess, success on the SAT and ACT involves memory, skill, and pattern recognition. Catalyst students learn strategies for all the questions they will encounter, but they also learn how to pace themselves, identify and avoid trap answers, and approach questions in a logical, efficient manner. Our students walk into the SAT and ACT with confidence not because they have learned a handful of “tricks,” but because they have mastered every type of problem they are about to face.
