ePrep helps me effectively teach a large group of students. ePrep automatically adapts itself to each student's ability level. In addition, ePrep's Study Hall allows me to accurately track all of my students in over 150 specific academic content areas.

Thanks a million for your help!!! Hannah brought her score up from a 28 (stuck for three consecutive tests) to a 30! This means she will get a full scholarship at her chosen school. Our friends will hear about your terrific service. You saved us $20,800!

ePrep is easy to use and the videos are easy to follow. I practice with ePrep whenever I have a break in my busy schedule. I have actually been doing better in school since I started eprepping for the SAT®.

My son is an athlete with a busy schedule. I feel good knowing that ePrep will not only help him score higher on the SAT®, it will help him prepare for the academic demands of a selective college.

This is our third year using ePrep. Year in, year out, students, teachers, and parents of all three high schools in Central Bucks are delighted with ePrep for the PreACT® 9/10, PSAT®, SAT®, and ACT®. We are excited to have been one of the first school districts to use ePrep.

With our third child, we went with ePrep instead of a local tutor or a well-known SAT® course. It was the best money we spent getting a child into a good college. I wish we had done it for Dylan's older brother and sister.

ePrep's user interface is well designed, the program is intuitive, and videos are truly eye-opening. Because higher test scores help with admissions and merit-based scholarships, ePrep makes sense for all college-bound students.

ePrep is a transparent program that invites parents into the black box of test prep. I actually enjoyed sitting with my son and watching the videos. Where was ePrep when I was a teenager?!

If you hope to have your child increase his or her test scores and become better prepared for college, ePrep is a great solution. ePrep videos address critical-thinking and problem-solving skills, in addition to content and strategy.

College Admissions Officer
I got to know the founders of ePrep when they were undergraduates at Princeton University back in the late 1980s. They are innovators who, fifteen years out of college, used their experiences in education to create a video-based online delivery platform that simulates the often pricey private tutoring experience.

Why ePrep?
Our Proven Methodology
ePrep courses employ the proven, results-driven methodology of (1) test, (2) grade, (3) review, and (4) repeat. Contrary to many marketing campaigns, there are no short-cuts, quick fixes, or magic-wand solutions to higher SAT® or ACT® scores… and preparing for the SAT® or ACT® will not likely be "fun." Anyone willing to "try hard" and learn from his or her mistakes, however, can achieve significant and measurable success on a high-stakes test like the SAT® or ACT®. Again, the methodology is simple: practice, grade, review, repeat.
How ePrep works
The ePrep Learning Cycle
PRACTICE/GRADE
For maximum flexibility, you can complete ePrep tests and quizzes either online or offline. ePrep’s online test functionality was designed to be intuitive and user friendly, perfect for students who don’t have easy access to printers or who simply prefer to work online via a tablet or computer. ePrep’s offline functionality is highly recommended because it allows students to simulate the test-day, paper/pencil environment. Regardless of how you complete an ePrep test or quiz, it will be graded instantly and you can review your score immediately.
REVIEW
Every ePrep test or quiz question comes with a video answer explanation that was recorded by a master teacher with decades of experience in high-school teaching and test prep. That’s right, ePrep has literally thousands of exam-room videos embedded in courses designed to help you maximize your test-prep effort and test-day scores. ePrep goes one step further, however. Every ePrep course comes with a Study Hall that recommends subject-matter and test-strategy videos based on the most up-to-date data collected from your test performance.
REPEAT
After you’ve watched ePrep’s exam-room and study-hall videos, apply what you’ve learned to a new test or quiz. Repeat the practice-grade-review cycle as many times as possible before test day to maximize your scores. If you have time over the weekend, take practice test and immediately complete the video review. If it’s during the week, and you only have a few minutes to dedicate to test prep, take a quiz to hone your skills or simply stay sharp.
What is ePrep?
Your guide to maximum scores
ePrep was launched in 2007, a time when people were skeptical about online, video-based learning. We stayed the course, however, and watched ePrep’s user base grow organically from a few thousand to hundreds of thousands per year. The reason for this growth is that ePrep actually works. In other words, students who use ePrep increase their test scores and become better prepared for the academic challenges of college.
Using ePrep is pretty simple. Students log in and pick a practice test or short quiz. Students complete tests and quizzes either online in their accounts or offline by downloading and printing practice materials. Students enter answers online for instant grading. After reviewing their scores, students watch videos associated with the questions they skipped, answered incorrectly, or answered correctly, but only after a guess or a long struggle.
ePrep videos cover academic content, useful problem-solving methodologies, and time-saving test-taking strategies. More importantly, ePrep videos show students how to solve problems in real time and in the same paper pencil environment they will experience on test day. The brilliance of ePrep videos does not come in the form of fancy multi-colored graphics or technology, but in the simple form of good teaching.
