Why Us

SAT is changing - shifting to Digital, being accepted by colleges globally, while being optional for many colleges in the US. Colleges are not forthright on how much a high SAT score impacts their decision. Competition is increasing with an increasing number of international applicants for US colleges. The policies related to diversity and inclusion are changing.
