Has anyone used eprep for sat?

Question

I was debating whether or not I should buy this program. I want to know if the eprep is worth the money. So, if you have personally used the eprep for the sat, did it help you at all? Was it useful? Did it increase your sat score? Tell me the pros and cons. Thank you!

Answer 1

I used the course and here are my two cents. The course is:

-Annoyingly long = Because everything is explained in video, my work pace was dictated by the speed of the video. Moreover, because the video explanations are long, drawn out, and boring, I often tuned out.



-Lacking interaction = I thought it would be fine to do a course without a tutor since the videos seemed enough. That was not the case. I would recommend getting a product that offers some level of tutoring so that you can actually work through a problem with someone or continue additional threads of questioning, instead of relying on a one-size-fits-all video explanation.

-Not customized = Since the course is online, I thought there would be an adaptive component, but there isn't. The course doesn't tailor itself to what I need to focus on; instead, it's just  like a traditional classroom course where you get what everybody else gets. Not customized, at all, despite being online.

-Inaccurate = The book materials offered questions that weren't very close to what you'd see on the actual exam. The questions seemed artificially difficult, from my perspective. You should find a course that offers real questions.

Ruling: NOT WORTH IT

Answer 2

It wasn't really worth it.  I had been reading the guy's blog and decided to try it out when they opened it up.  The video explanations are cool but after a while they get boring - really boring!  

My score didn't go up and I found that I didn't get motivated by the video explanations because they were slow.   I think these are a good idea but they need to change it up.

I don't really have much more time to prep but I hope you do some other program for your own good.
