Frequently Asked Questions About SAT Tutoring & Prep
What Is the SAT?
The SAT is a multiple-choice, standardized test for college admissions in the United Sates that is designed to assess a student's readiness for higher education. In addition to college admissions, the SAT is used by researchers studying human intelligence, and also is used by some employers for recruiting.
Does SAT tutoring improve your score?
According to the makers of the SAT, even just 8 hours of SAT tutoring and prep can lead to 90 point score increase on average. Additional tutoring beyond that can help even more: students who receive at least 20 hours of SAT tutoring typically see an average score increase of up to 115 points or more.
What should I look for in an SAT tutor?
When it comes to selecting an SAT tutor, you'll want to find someone who is not only a master of the SAT exam itself, but someone who is able to effectively teach the test material in a way that's easy for you to understand and retain. On top of that, you want an SAT tutor who understands your specific test-taking aptitude and works with you to improve your test-taking skills.
What is the best way to prepare for the SAT?
When it comes to preparing for the SAT, there are a variety of strategies a student should take. First, the earlier you start your SAT prep, the better: you will want to diagnose your academic strengths and weaknesses as soon as possible. After that, you'll want to set a score goal for yourself so that you can design your prep process around achieving that score.
During the prep process, you will want to take at least two practice tests in order to familiarize yourself with the test as much as possible. Additionally, there are plenty of practice resources available online, so you'll want to review those as well.
Finally, beyond your regular studying, you may want to consider enlisting the help of an experienced SAT tutor who will help you get the most out of your SAT prep. Remember: preparing for the SAT is a marathon, not a sprint.
When should I start preparing for the SAT?
How much time you will need to prepare to take the SAT will vary student by student, but a general rule of thumb is to start preparing for the SAT at least 2-3 months in advance of test day.
When should high school students take the SAT?
Technically, you can take the SAT any time after you've started your freshman year of high school, though most students take the SAT in the spring of their junior year. The SAT is offered seven times a year in March, May, June, August, October, November, and December, so students have a variety of options that can fit their schedule and SAT-readiness.
How many times can I take the SAT?
Technically, a student can take the SAT as many times as they want or need to, however, we recommend that students take the SAT only 2-3 times. If you've already taken the SAT once and are planning on taking it again to increase your score, then it will be in your best interests to work with an SAT tutor or test prep professional to increase your chances of a better score.
How much does SAT tutoring cost?
The cost of an SAT tutor will vary depending on the type and length of the tutoring engagement. Generally speaking, a good SAT tutor will cost anywhere from $100 - $1000 an hour.
Fortunately, Inspirica Pros has a variety of SAT tutors to meet your budget & your specific SAT prep needs.

An Overview of the SAT and SAT Test Prep
The SAT is one of the two major tests used by colleges and universities during their admissions processes. Though many high schools treat the SAT as if it is interchangeable with the ACT, the two tests are in reality very different from one another, and most students are better served by taking the one that best fits their individual style. Inspirica’s approach to the SAT starts with recognizing that fact, and our Agnostic Diagnostic will help you determine whether the SAT is the test that’s best for you.
SAT/ACT PathFinder Diagnostic
Many people mistakenly think that there’s no real difference between the SAT and the ACT, but that couldn’t be further from the truth. These two tests are actually very different, and every student is more likely to succeed on one than on the other. So how can you tell which test better fits your strengths without throwing away hours taking multiple diagnostics?
The answer is the SAT/ACT PathFinder, a proprietary testing tool designed to simulate both the ACT and the SAT in a single 3-hour session.
