One-on-one prep built around your student's target score, timeline, and starting point. You work with Gabe, never a rotating cast of instructors.
Gabe has spent more than eight years preparing San Diego students for the SAT and ACT. No score guarantees, no shortcuts. Just a clear plan, consistent practice, and honest feedback.
Both tests are accepted by every major college. The right choice depends on your student's strengths. We find out with a diagnostic of each.
Each section is scored from 200 to 800, for a combined score of 400 to 1600.
Fully digital and adaptive. Taken on a laptop or tablet at a test center.
Composite score ranges from 1 to 36, based on English, Math, and Reading. Science and Writing are optional and do not affect the composite.
Paper or digital. Science and Writing sections are both optional.
A step-by-step approach that takes your student from the first practice test to test-day confidence.
We start with a full-length practice SAT and ACT so we can see exactly where your student stands, find the gaps, and determine which test plays to their strengths.
Based on the diagnostic, target schools, and timeline, we build a week-by-week plan that covers what your student needs and skips what they already know.
Sessions concentrate on the question types and concepts that move the score most: math, reading, writing, and the reasoning behind each one.
Timing, pacing, question triage, and process of elimination. Your student learns how to work efficiently under real test-day conditions.
Regular practice tests under realistic conditions, followed by a review of every missed question so mistakes become learning opportunities.
Gabe works with families across all of San Diego, including North County communities such as Del Mar, Solana Beach, Encinitas, Carmel Valley, Carlsbad, and Rancho Santa Fe. Many families come to us from Canyon Crest Academy, San Dieguito Academy, and Torrey Pines High School.
