SAT/ACT/SAT Subject Test Preparation
Who needs to sit the SAT/ACT and SAT Subject Tests?
Students are required to check with the University whether the admissions process requires them to sit a standardised test. Many of the students we teach are applying to US Colleges and European Business Schools that request a standardised test as part of the application criteria alongside your GPA, the classes you took in high school, letters of recommendation, extracurricular activities, admissions interviews, and written essays. Overall, the general rule of thumb, is that the higher you score on the SAT and/or ACT, the more options available to you.

“Every week I learnt new methods for solving questions, I feel more confident about how to approach solving more complicated questions that need a creative approach. I am more confident in my ability, I liked doing the questions at home and in class. I would recommend because I enjoyed and benefitted from the class.” Rose
“Different graphs and the same method to tackle all of them.Now I can use the same steps that I’ve learnt tackling these questions to help me think about the answers to other questions. It has given me the confidence to think out loud and not be afraid to make mistakes.” Nikita
“Great sessions which gave a lot of questions to practice with for work at home. The teacher was great and really knew his stuff.

The course is great as it not only helps with the entrance test but is also a great way of preparing for your interview.” Ahad

Why Choose Step Into My Shoes?
- To the best of our knowledge, we are the only private providers of admissions test preparation courses in the UK across several weeks.

All the science behind revision suggests we are right.
- Our course preparation includes a focus on test strategy and technique.
- We believe in homework and that students learn best by doing. Our curated handouts are designed to help students digest and master the concepts learned in the classroom through further practice at home.
