We are most appreciative of the outstanding educational value that Double800 provided to our two children during their high school years. The program's leadership is first-class and we are grateful for their keen attention to our children's success.

Following on their achievements on the PSAT and SAT, our son attended Northwestern University and subsequently Oxford University, England, as a Marshall Scholar, and our daughter was a National Merit Scholarship Finalist and attends the University of Arizona as a Flinn Scholar. We credit Double800 for having played a most important role in their paths to academic success.

The secret to success on the SAT's isn't a secret at all. Just register for the Double 800 prep course, learn the concepts for each subject, and complete and review the official practice tests. The class provides a practical, tools-based approach that takes the fear out of "the big test", and replaces that fear with actual skills, techniques and confidence that boost SAT test scores.

My oldest daughter vastly improved her scores after participating in the Double 800 program, where she received honest-to-goodness personalized attention. As a result, she was accepted into her dream school, a very competitive top college. My youngest daughter will also be attending the Double 800 course later this year, and I'm recommending it to everyone I know who is beginning to think about the college admissions process.

Double 800's record of helping kids boost their scores speaks for itself, but if you still have questions, give Micah a call. He's accessible, knowledgeable, and he's thrilled to help.

Dear Micah, Just wanted to inform you that our daughter Ria took the SAT test on Oct 9 and she got a score of 2310 (Math-770, CR-740, Writing-800)! Thank you for teaching her some great test-taking strategies! She certainly benefited from attending your class and you have my highest endorsement.

Arun Dagupta, father of Pinnacle High School junior

My son's scores improved from the 180s on the PSAT to 2220 on the SAT after he took the Double 800 course.  He feels that through the explanation and review of the test sections and questions, the program took the mystery out of the test and made it into something that could be broken down and attacked.  Micah was very helpful to both of us, and my son benefited from his intelligence and his calm, easy teaching style.  With the SAT scores he achieved after taking this class, my son was able to gain acceptance to Vanderbilt University, where he now attends.

Tamara Slagis, mother of Catalina Foothills High School graduate

I am writing to express our deepest thanks for the enormous impact you had on our son.  Our son, Don, was an “A” student throughout high school, but did not fare especially well on standardized tests, thus our decision to enroll him in your class at the Tucson JCC. 
 
To make a long story short, his scores increased by some 25% at the conclusion of your class.  We were so impressed by these results that we enrolled him in a second class at Double 800.  His scores increased by another 10%. 
 
Our son applied to 20 schools and was accepted by 19 of these, including Yale (where he currently attends), Stanford, Dartmouth, Brown, Duke, Rice and numerous others.  He—and we—attribute this in large measure to the tools and test-taking strategies he learned in your world-class program.  So impressed are we by your program that we recently enrolled our daughter, a high school junior, in her first (of what will be several) Double 800 programs. 
 
To paraphrase our son, you are an “awesome” teacher, incredibly “kind and patient,” with an “amazing ability make the intangible tangible.”  Speaking for myself, I have been incredibly impressed by your world-class customer service and communication. 
 
Any parent of a college-bound child would be remiss in not enrolling them in your program.  My wife and I view your program as the greatest academic gift we have given our son.  I recommend your program in the strongest possible terms and without reservation.

I took the Double800 course right before my PSAT, and I couldn't be happier with that result. Because of the course, I reached a perfect score of 240, up 31 points from my sophomore year score! I took the SAT I the next month and was very pleased with that, too. I scored 2260 overall: 790 in math, 780 in critical reading, and 690 in writing.
 
The best part of the class for me was the structured approach that went section by section, with many practice problems. The course gave me the means and incentive to practice all parts of the test, which I found was the secret to improving my scores. I don't know what the SAT inventors were thinking when they claimed students couldn't study for their little "reasoning test." Double800 was a really smart choice. And now, because of my scores, I have many great scholarship opportunities.

Hey Micah! It was nice to see you at the College Fair. Sorry it took me so long to get back to you, but here are my SAT scores from the March test:
Math: 800; Critical Reading: 700; Writing: 770  (perfect 80 score on multiple choice).  I was also a National Merit Scholarship winner.  Thanks for all the help!

K.A.S., Salpointe Catholic High School senior

I scored a 2250 on the SAT and a great deal of credit goes to the Double-800 Class. I would say that I improved the most in the writing section due to the class. On the SAT, I received a perfect 800 on the Writing Section.

Micah helped significantly in the writing multiple choice sections and especially the essay - on which I scored the maximum 12, thanks to him! I strongly recommend taking this class both for PSAT and SAT preparation. I also improved my score on the PSAT from 198 to 221, which qualified me as a National Merit Semi-finalist.

I urge all people who are thinking about taking the class not to hesitate in making the decision. Even though I was initially skeptical, thinking a prep class would probably not help me much, Double-800 turned out to be extremely influential in getting both the 2250 and the 221.

A.T., University High School junior

Hi Micah, I just wanted to thank you very much for your time and effort in the SAT class; it was well worth my time. I got a 2270 on the test! Thanks again.

C.P., BASIS Tucson senior

After hearing excellent reviews about the Double800 program, I enrolled my son who had never been a strong standardized test-taker. When he received his scores (720 Writing, Essay 11, 710 Reading. 680 Math) we were thrilled! This was honestly the best $600 I have ever spent; an investment that will pay dividends for years to come. Warm Regards,

T. L., mother of Catalina Foothills High School junior

I'm so glad I took the Double 800 prep course.  Thanks to the program, I have many more opportunities for admission to competive colleges. (2020 composite score.)

A.A., Catalina Foothills High School senior

Because of Double800, I felt confident when I walked into the test room, and I felt just as good when I walked out. The course taught me techniques that definitely boosted my SAT and PSAT scores  (2270 and 223) and qualified me as a National Merit Scholarship Finalist.

G.S., BASIS Tucson junior

The Double800 course was very helpful as Micah gave me great tips on how to approach the test. My PSAT score improved to 216 (perfect 80 on Critical Reading), and I received a composite SAT score of 2100.

N.R., BASIS Tucson junior

Hi, Micah! I scored a 2260 on the November SAT and my math score increased from a 610 to a 760. I really appreciate all your help!

R.G., Salpointe Catholic High School senior

Hi, I just received my scores from the October SAT: 1340 overall, with a 650 verbal and a 690 math. (89% and 92%). I received a 650 on the essay portion, equivalent to 90%. I wanted to get above a 1300 because I knew that was the average score for entrance into the U of A Honors College. The double800 class really gave me a lot more confidence about the test. Thank you for a great experience.

M.W., Salpointe Catholic High School Junior

I chose DOUBLE 800 over the national programs for two reasons. First, I suspected that a reputable local boutique would be more motivated to get results than a national firm or a high school resource. Second, I interviewed the instructor and was impressed with his understanding of the subject and ability to communicate. I was delighted with the program and my son's scores! (2030; 710 W, 700 M, 620 R)
