Getting Started:

When a student comes to The Study Shack for test preparation, they are given an initial 1.5-hour assessment for whichever test they are preparing for. Based on the results of that assessment, previous testing scores, and experiences, we determine the appropriate timeline for tutoring, and discuss the areas specific to the test that will need the most focus during the next few months of test preparation.
