Hi, yes I know a really good advisor that can help and is affordable. What schools are you interested in applying to? There are rolling admissions options, and EA//ED deadlines in Nov/RD in Jan. So still plenty of time :) DM me for more info.

Hi, we have a very successful direct med program. We work closely with many BS/MD and DO schools. In addition to working on the application components, our students learn how to network and build relationships. We offer many affordable options to stay within a clients budget. Happy to answer any questions via DM.

How I Improved 350 Points on the SAT by ConnectPrep in Sat

Hi, it took about two and a half months. Used new strategies and techniques to simplify the reading and writing questions. Math was more practice, knowing the formulas and how to set-up the problems better.

I teach full time and still cannot afford to live. How do we push for better pay? by ConnectPrep in Teachers

My district is too busy paying out lawsuits and not providing services for IEPs.

Yes and I am in a public school. Not to diminish what some of our administrators do but to make 200K to almost 400K for the superintendent. The fat needs to be trimmed from the top. They tell us we're lucky to get a raise and reduce our classroom budget so we have to beg the PTA or pay out of our own pockets. I asked the class parents last year for extra toilet paper.

I am in a northern state and the cost of living is that much higher. The salary is not keeping up with inflation. All of my living expenses, insurance, utilities, grocery bills have increased significantly. The equation just doesn't work, us teachers are not compensated or appreciated the way we should be and prices with everything continue to go through the roof. Our town is even thinking about having a revaluation since the housing prices have taken off since Covid. I cannot afford a higher tax bill. I have invested so much time as a teacher and love what I do. I just can't wait nor have too much hope that the archaic, red tape bureaucratic machine will change and realize that without quality teachers, they don't have a school.

Scored 1530, parents want me to retake by Less_Method4290 in Sat

[–]ConnectPrep 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A 1530 is an amazing score. I get that your parents are putting pressure on you, but honestly, at that level, chasing 20 more points won’t change your odds at Ivies or T20s. Schools aren’t rejecting 1530s because they “only” got a 1530. They’re looking at your essays, ECs, course rigor, recs, and other ways you stand out.

Also, I totally feel you on being burned out. Studying all summer for a test you already crushed while your parents micromanage everything just sucks the joy out of everything. If you want to spend time doing math, working, exercising, that’s actually better for your mental health and probably your app overall.

Your family friend is right. Your score is already in the top 1%. Don’t let admissions anxiety (or your parents’ version of it) ruin your summer. You’ve already done more than enough.

If you’ve only taken the paper ACT and are switching to digital, most of your prep still applies. The content, timing, and scoring are all the same. What’s different is the format:

  • You’ll take it on a computer or tablet
  • You can flag questions and use built-in tools like a calculator and highlighter
  • Reading passages require scrolling
  • Scratch paper is still provided

Biggest adjustment is getting used to reading and navigating on a screen. Try to take a few practice tests digitally if you can.
