Because of time constraints, geographic restrictions, and hectic schedules, many students are unable to experience the full advantages provided by traditional, classroom-only SAT courses. The virtual platform used in the Live Online SAT Course eliminates the requirement that a student be present at a class site, while still providing access to the many features PowerScore is known for: in-depth course materials, instructors with SAT scores in at least the 95th percentile, a 200 point score increase guarantee, and an unparalleled level of support and customer service.

Each lesson in PowerScore’s Live Online SAT Course is taught live by two instructors who have scored in the 95th percentile or higher on an actual College Board administered SAT and have years of teaching experience. The course includes 6 live, instructor-led sessions lasting 2 ½ hours each, and 6 live office hour sessions lasting at least 1 hour each for a total of 21 hours of instruction time. The live office hours allow students to ask questions regarding prior homework assignments and to go over any concepts they are struggling with from previous lessons. The instructors can also track students’ attendance, participation, strengths and weaknesses, and test performance with the online platform used in the course.

All online classes are archived for later review, which is great for students who miss a lesson. Closed captioning is also available and the software is approved by the American Disability Association. Students are able to attend this course from anywhere in the world and access the course material 24 hours a day, seven days per week. A Course Preparation Pack is mailed to the student, which includes lesson books, homework, drills, and 8 actual SAT practice tests.

Jon Denning, PowerScore Live Online SAT Course Instructor and Course Developer, explains some of the key advantages of the online format, stating, “Because the Live Online Course sessions are recorded and archived, the classroom information is readily accessible throughout the course for further review. Students can go back and study individual lessons at their leisure, or re-examine selected portions of a lesson. The interactive nature of the course is unprecedented, allowing for all of the advantages of an in-class experience, coupled with the comfort and convenience of studying at home.”
