The Scholastic Assessment Test, or SAT, is a multiple-choice, pencil, and paper-based standardized exam conducted and administered by the College Board. SAT is used by high school students for undergraduate college admissions to universities specifically in the United States. The Admissions Officers at the universities accept SAT scores as a key aspect in the selection criteria for their undergraduate programs.
The SAT exam measures a student's skills in three areas Critical Reading, Mathematics, and Writing. Students of Grade 11 and 12 use their SAT scores as part of their college applications. A high SAT score along with academic transcripts with a high GPA, personal essays, extracurricular activities, and recommendation letters. Some students also get lucky with merit-based scholarships at universities with a decent SAT score.

We had a wonderful experience with GuideMe for SAT exam prep.
I highly recommend their program. My son's scores improved considerably, and he was able to score a whopping 1510. I really feel they went above and beyond to support him, which is why I'm going out of my way to write this review. Their personalized teaching is at a very high level. You will not regret it. Thanks to GuideMe our son got into the school of his dreams - University of California, Berkeley!! Couldn’t have been happier.

I studied at GuideMe for my SAT preparation. I also availed their Admissions Counseling services. My SAT preparation was structured, in depth and detailed with faculty available for doubt solving.The admission counseling process helped me streamline my applications. I had multiple sessions with my counsellor on filling out, brainstorming and structuring my applications. My writers helped me come up with great essays for my target schools. You do have to make the final edit though (speaking from experience). I will be attending UCSD as a freshman this September and I am pleased with the help and support I have received from GuideMe.
