I really liked how the class was shorter and more to the point
than other SAT classes. It was much easier to remember techniques.
I also like how we did the practice tests at home.

The
class is straightforward, direct, and up-to-date with today’s
newest SAT. The methods taught are worthwhile.
—Christopher,
Kensington, NH (Exeter High School ’07)
I
enjoyed this class very much. By taking this SAT course I learned
much
more about the test than I knew before. I was
nervous and stressed out about the SAT and this class gave me
confidence
and relaxed me and convinced me that doing well is about strategy
and not necessarily one’s knowledge. Thank you!
—Lucy,
Durham, NH (Oyster River High School ’07)
I really enjoyed the course. I think that I have definitely
improved my scores. When I took the practice test the first day,
many questions completely baffled me. As classes went on, homework
became an easy task and I felt less nervous about taking the
SATs. I definitely fell way more prepared.
—Amelia,
Durham, NH (Oyster River High School ’07)
I think I have more knowledge about the SAT. I have learned
better techniques to solve problems.
—Eric,
Exeter, NH (Exeter High School ’07)
Great class. I really enjoyed the pace of the class, how we
were able to learn techniques that will make the test easier.
I think the biggest thing I gained was confidence in taking the
test.
— Natalie, Stratham, NH (Berwick Academy '07)
I had taken an SAT class before, but I thought this one was better
because it focused on the essentials. I think my score will improve
because of it.
— Sarah, Cranston, RI (Cranston High School '07)
I think the class was an excellent way to prepare for the test.
I feel confident going forth that I will be able to do my best
on the test in the future. I would definitely recommend the class
to other people.
— Craig, Durham, NH (Oyster River High School '07)
Prof. Corbin’s SAT course has helped me to understand that
anyone can receive a decent score on the SAT by following his
philosophy. Knowing what I know now I am very confident going
into the SAT.
—Jason,
Newfields, NH (Exeter High School, ’06)
I loved the course. I felt like it really meant something to
Prof. Corbin, that he really wanted to help me and listen to
what I had to say. It was great. I learned a lot!
—Jillian,
Stratham, NH (Exeter High School, ’06)
Over all, very well time spent. Understanding that the SAT is
mostly mental, I did not know what to expect from this course.
Your teaching style and over all well-rounded personality have
given me the confidence I need to conquer the SAT. MY main goal
taking the course was to boost my math score and I have. My reading
and writing scores have also gone up as well. Thank you and keep
it up.
— Cody,
Stratham, NH (Exeter High School, ’06)
This course helped me learn new techniques for cracking the
SAT. The part of the course that helped me the most was cracking
the critical reading and writing sections. This course definitely
helped me for the SAT.
—Tori,
Barnstead, NH (Coe-Brown High School ’06)
The class taught us basic and advanced methods of how to do better
on the test. I really enjoyed Prof. Corbin's teaching style.
He made the class easy to follow. I would definitely recommend
the class to other students.
— Calla, Stratham (Exeter High School '06)
I thought the course was an excellent way to learn about the
math, critical reading, and writing sections. I especially enjoyed
the sessions on the writing portion of the exam. I expect that
I will be able to do better when I take the exam next year.
— Chris, Exeter, NH (Exeter High School '06)
This course definitely helped me. It lets you in on keys to “cracking” the
test you otherwise wouldn’t have known. It significantly
raised my confidence in taking the SAT as well, which is a major
component of taking the test-having the right frame of mind.
This course refreshes your memory on basic concepts necessary
to be aware of for the SAT, and does help you conquer, and “crack” the
SAT. Thanks!
—Megan,
Lee, NH (Oyster River High School, ‘06)
I liked the small size of the class. It really allowed me to
ask any questions that I had and be given the time to learn the
techniques. I think my SAT score will really benefit from the
course.
— Colby, Exeter, NH (Exeter High School '06)
The class was really helpful. I feel better about taking the
test than I did before I started. I feel like I know my way around
the test much better than before, and feel confident that if
I use the techniques I learned in the class, that I will do well
on the SAT.
— Tyler, Lee, NH (Oyster River High School '06)
I really learned a lot, especially on the critical reading and
writing sections. I think the course is a good way to prepare
for the SAT.
— Mary, Exeter, NH (White Mountain High School '06)
The first session was helpful from the start. Just being able
to break down what the test is. The other sessions were helpful
in showing ways how to approach specific questions and answer
certain questions.
—
Tristan, Durham, NH (Oyster River High School ‘06)
This course helped me to approach math problems from another
perspective, in a more general and less mind-boggling manner.
I can use my time more efficiently and feel prepared for the
SAT next week. This class was certainly worth my time. Thank
you.
—Vanessa,
South Hampton, NH (Amesbury High School ’06)
I thought the course was very helpful because of all of the
new and different ways to answer questions I have learned.
—Dan,
North Attleboro, MA (North Attleboro High School ’06)
This class really seems like it will help. I am more confident
now going into the SAT than I was a week ago. After taking numerous
practice tests and applying the helpful hints I’ve been
getting, I can already see the tremendous jump in my scores.
Overall the class was very effective and I feel I have gotten
a lot out of it.
—
Sam, Lee, NH (Oyster River High School ‘06)
I have gained more confidence in preparation for the exam. It
has taught me some tricks to look for. I enjoyed the small class
size and the ability to focus on more of a one-on-one basis.
Not thrilled about the homework (taking the practice exams in
between classes) on the 1st day, but after the 1st assignment
it became helpful to see what types of problems/questions would
be on the exam.
—
Jeffrey, Stratham, NH (Exeter High School ‘06)
I think this course has been very helpful and will aide in my
SAT scores. The one-on-one atmosphere helped the class conform
to my personal needs. Overall I am pleased with this class and
hopefully will be pleased with the results. Prof. Corbin is very
serious about the new SATs and his attitude has been a driving
force for me to score well.
—
Jason, Lee, NH (Oyster River High School ‘06)
I thought the course was interesting. The math and essay portions
were what I needed the most help on, so I appreciate the help.
I am also glad that we have the study packets to use in preparing
for October.
— Alyssa,
North Tonawanda, NY (North Tonawanda High School ’06)
I
thought the course was excellent. If you want to get ready
for the
SAT without having to worry about getting bogged down
in a longer course, I would highly recommend the Seacoast Tutoring
Center’s SAT prep course.
—
Elliot, Exeter, NH (Exeter High School, ‘05)
I think that the course was a great way to learn how not to know
every answer yet still be able to eliminate the answers that
are wrong. I learned a lot about taking the test itself, and
to be calm and think through everything with common sense. It
also helped getting used to taking the practice tests. To me,
it was time well spent. I needed the help and I got it. It was
just a great prep course overall.
—
Nick, Durham, NH (Oyster River High School ‘05)
I definitely feel that the course was worth it for me. I already
had a feel for the SAT, but now I have a good grip. The course
has provided me with new confidence that I hope to bring the
next time I take the test. I found Professor Corbin to be a nice,
down to earth guy from whom it was easy to learn. Through his
strategies, I know I will be able to do my best. Thanks!
—
Ashley, Brentwood, NH (Exeter High School ‘05)
I think this course was both worthwhile and helpful. Although
I have already taken the SATs once, this course informed me of
a lot of techniques that I will be sure to use on October 9th.
For me, the math section was the most helpful in terms of review.
I was glad to hear that the course will soon include two math
days because I feel that it is important that everyone review
basic math concepts/strategies before taking the test. Also,
Prof. Corbin's teaching strategies were extremely clear, concise,
and informative. Thanks for everything!
—
Courtney, Rochester, NH (Spaulding High School ‘05)
I enjoyed this course because it gave me ideas and hints that
will help me when taking the SATs. I especially liked the math
because I learned some new ways to solve problems that I never
knew before. Hopefully these skills will improve my score on
both verbal and math. Overall, I am glad that I took this course.
Thanks!
—
Karina, Rye, NH (Portsmouth High School ‘05)
This class helped me gain a better understanding of the SAT
test and gave me skills which I will apply to do better on the
SATs. The practice tests each week allowed me to apply the skills
I was learning.
—
Molly, Durham, NH (Oyster River High School ‘05)
I think that this course is very helpful. I had no idea that
the classes would be so small and that we, the students, would
get so much help in a sort of one-on-one way. Mr. Corbin was
very informative and was very helpful in the way he would explain
things. I happened to be sick on one class and didn't make it
that day and it was no problem making up the class.
—
Greg, Stratham, NH (Exeter High School ‘05)
I thought this course taught me alot about the verbal section
of the SAT. Verbal has always been my weakness, but now hopefully
it will be my strength.
—
Ricky, Durham, NH (Oyster River High School ‘05)
I really like how the classes are on Saturday morning.
—
Tara, Hampton Falls, NH (Winnacunnet High School ‘05).
This course helped me a lot in regards to the ways of breaking
down the SAT and “figuring” it out. I’ve
learned a lot of helpful methods, esp. in math, that will cut
my time,
and help me think more logically.
—
Sarah, Stratham, NH (St. Thomas High School ‘05)
I thought that this class was very beneficial. I used to think
of the SAT test and shudder, but now I’ve learned skills
of elimination and narrowing down possibilities. Thank you
for your time and dedication.
—
Emily, Kensington, NH (Exeter High School ‘05)
This course was the perfect length. One class period per subject;
any more would have been tedious, less wouldn’t have
been enough. The whole idea and theory presented in the class
on how
to approach the SATs will definitely affect my final score
in a positive way.
—
Laura, Hampton, NH (Winnacunnet High School ‘05)
This course is very informative. I really did learn a lot of
good techniques in order to crack the SAT. I thought Prof. Corbin
was very intelligent and knew what he was talking about! Thank
you for your help!
—
Emily, Exeter,NH (Exeter High School ‘05)
I liked the course because I didn’t know how to write
the essay before I came here, and now I have a good idea of
how to
write it.
—Dana,
Huntington, NY (Huntington High School ’07)
Helpful, learned a lot, like your teaching style, and I feel
more confident about taking the SAT.
—Megan,
Norwood, MA (Norwood High School ’08)
I am still young but this class gave me a better feeling about
high school and the SAT. I would definitely recommend this class
to other kids. It helped me a lot.
