"The self-paced course was perfect for our busy schedule. The SPS and PSE content was comprehensive and really prepared my son for what to expect. He got admitted!"
"The feedback on my daughter's essays was incredibly detailed. The instructors really took time to understand her story and help her improve each response."
"Worth every penny. We started in 6th grade and the continuous access meant we could revisit material as needed. The Padlet Q&A was super helpful."
This course is administered via Google Classroom, a highly intuitive platform similar to those students use at school. It includes pre-recorded videos and guides that teach students how to plan, structure, and write their responses, along with examples and templates. After working through the material, students can submit their responses for individualized line-by-line feedback from our instructors.
We use Padlet for students to ask and answer questions. One of our instructors, a TJHSST alumnus, will respond typically within a couple of hours with a detailed answer. Students can also view responses to other students' questions (1200+ and counting). For additional questions, students can contact us via WhatsApp or email.
On average, the course takes about 40-50 hours to complete. This includes 15-20 hours for all video content and written materials, plus an additional 25-30 hours to complete the practice prompts. Students have completed the course in as little as two weeks or spread it over several years, depending on their pace.
Students receive access until the end of their admissions cycle. For example, a student who signs up in 6th grade will have access through 7th and 8th grade, including any course updates at no additional cost. Signing up early provides continuous access without monthly or annual fees.
While we offer live coaching, the self-paced online course has similar admission rates to small group coaching. If the student commits to completing the course, the self-paced course is highly effective. If you're interested in live coaching, we offer small group coaching.
Yes! We encourage younger students to start with the self-paced course. If students wish to switch to small group coaching as they approach 8th grade, contact us to apply the tuition paid toward small group coaching. We accommodate switch requests subject to availability.
