Ainsley went over SAT Reading and Writing in a thorough way going over specific SAT reading strategies for every type of passage and clarifying writing structure question types like order and transition of ideas. What was most helpful in the review sessions was the formulaic approach in the writing and reading that allowed for greater consistency and accuracy in the reading section. After 4 reviews I noticed my practice tests going from a 650 range to a 730-770 range.
