<p>My dad saw an ad on Craigslist: World-famous SAT tutor. So he checked out the site <a href="http://www.sat2400.org%5B/url%5D">www.sat2400.org</a>, and he was shocked to find the fees are $2500/2 hr. and $7500/5 week class! The founder claims that he has perfect scores on more than 100 standardized tests! He also wrote a book called: SAT1600 Test Prep Series. The price? $399.99. I would like to hear what Xiggi has to say.</p>
<p>holy cow!!</p>
<p>That's ridiculous!</p>
<p>The author/tutor claims to have a perfect score on the MCAT. I thought that nobody has gotten a perfect MCAT score. Am I misinformed or is the tutor lying?</p>
<p>that's crazy!
is it real???</p>
<p>this guy must be god or satan</p>
<p>Satan no doubt, man</p>
<p>If you have enough money to waste $2500 on 2 hours of tutoring, why would you even need to go to college in the first place?</p>
<p>I've checked out this tutor. His claim that he has scored perfectly on more than 100 standardized tests is probably blatantly false. For one thing, no one has EVER scored perfectly on all three sections of the MCAT (45). (The highest score I have heard of is a 43.) And while he definitely appears to be intelligent, I doubt that he has even scored perfectly on all other exams besides the MCAT. There are numerous, somewhat embarrassing grammatical errors on his website and course contract, so I am not sure he can even score an 800 on the new SAT Writing section. And the best SAT tutors I know charge about $200-$500 an hour, not a ridiculous amount of $1250 per hour!</p>
<p>I actually e-mailed him about a year ago, asking him to send me copies of score reports to verify his claim of these perfect scores. He responded with a terse e-mail stating that I would have to personally drop by his office for him to show me his scores. I smell a fraud.</p>
<p>Maybe you could say that he is shrewder than the people paying for his services.</p>
<p>Ha I like how it says that a 2 hour private session is $2500 but 5 is the minimum number of private sessions that a student must sign up for.....thats $12500!!!! Who in their right mind would pay that much to increase their SAT score? not me.</p>
<p>One thing is for sure, this guy did receive all those 1600s and that 2400 because those score reports are real.</p>
<p>How do you know someone else's score reports are real? There are known instances from a few years back of people faking SAT I score reports.</p>
<p>I wouldn't ever pay that much for a tutor. Just a regular prep class is good enough for me. I'd feel pretty duped if I paid that much and didn't get an exceedingly high score.</p>
