After the group class, the biggest point gains come from regular, individualized attention over several weeks. Our 1-on-1 tutoring sessions are tailored to each student and designed to overcome their specific weaknesses, exploit their strengths, and refine student-specific strategies. These sessions work in tandem with the group course, and are perfect for students who are taking the test multiple times, reaching for exceptionally high scores, or facing unique challenges. Students receiving 1-on-1 tutoring also receive unlimited access to online practice materials and extra diagnostic tests with score reports.
1-on-1 tutoring hours are only discounted when purchased alongside a group class. Choose your amount of 1-on-1 hours above and we’ll contact you to schedule them anytime based on your needs and availability. Hours are transferable and never expire.
Master the Most Advanced SAT Math Concepts
Stamp Your Passport to Advanced Math
The topics taught in this class are found in the "Passport to Advanced Math" category of the SAT, which makes up about 28-30% of the hardest math questions on the exam. While they may not appear frequently, mastering these topics can help high-achieving students reach higher scores on the more challenging portions of the math section.
In addition to mastering advanced mathematical concepts, students will enhance essential skills such as problem-solving, time management, critical thinking, and estimation. These skills are crucial for tackling challenging SAT math questions confidently and efficiently.
Sample of Topics Covered
Complex number operations
Circle and parabola equations
Advanced trigonometry (less common identities and applications)
Complex functions (interpreting and manipulating)
Radian measure
Higher-degree polynomials (roots and end behavior)
Inequalities with absolute values
Graph interpretation (less common graph types)
Systems of nonlinear equations
Word problems with hidden information
Advanced function notation and operations
Matrices (basic operations)
Exponential functions or equations
Interpreting structure in expressions
Word problems involving multiple concepts
Grid-in questions
Data analysis and interpretation
Advanced Problem-Solving Techniques
Students will learn to break down complex problems and employ discriminant analysis for quadratic equations. To improve time management, students practice under timed conditions and learn which questions to prioritize. Additionally, students will hone their critical thinking and estimation skills, utilizing statistics and process of elimination to increase their chances of selecting the correct answer.
These skills empower students to approach advanced SAT math questions with confidence, efficiency, and a higher likelihood of success.
