Should I Take a Class?

<p>Hello!
I will be a junior next year, taking the SAT in the fall. I am going to study this summer for the SAT and I am willing to dedicate as much time as possible to get a good score.
I just took 2 diagnostic tests, I scored a 2130 on one and 2000 on the other, without any prior studying. </p>

<p>I have been looking at many different SAT classes, including Elite 2100+, Chyten, Princeton Review, and C2 Prep. </p>

<p>They all seem very good and I have no idea what to choose.
Will a class even help me with my score? or are all the classes basic? </p>

<p>Many people have said I should do one on one tutoring instead of a class. IS this a good idea? If so, which company has the best tutoring program? </p>

<p>In terms of one on one it may help you personalize study since you’re scoring high. I don’t know much about the other ones though. </p>

<p>No. don’t waste your money</p>

<p>Yes, take one. It won’t be a waste of money if you study outside of the tutoring sessions, ask the tutor as many questions as possible, and really understand why you are getting specific questions wrong.</p>

<p>Unless you’re rich and can spend it without thinking twice. a 2000+ without studying tells me you don’t need to have a tutor. You NEED to find out what you’re weak on (albeit not much considering ur scoreS) and keep up practice.</p>

<p>It is indeed expensive, but if you’re diligent to do all the work the tutor tells you to do and get the most information out of him, it is more than worth it.</p>

<p>Tutors can detect and tell you things that you might not see yourself, like flaws in critical reading methods. It does become harder to raise your score from 2100 to 2200, and even harder from 2200 to 2300 vice versa, since the margin of error becomes much less unforgivable, and even an expensive tutor can help justify his/her cost.</p>

<p>But if you feel there’s no qualified SAT tutor in your area, then of course you shouldn’t hire one. Nonetheless, I’d strongly recommend a class since working with others helps you see what you may not see about your SAT skills.</p>

<p>So is everyone saying that I should do one-on-one instead of a group class? Because I am leaning towards one-on-one tutoring but I am worried that I won’t be able to get as much studying done on my own than if I were attending a group class for 5 hours a day. Any thoughts? </p>
