Workshop Testimonials |
What our former students and their parents say about PREPSKILLS's Résumé, Application & Interview Workshop.
"Hi, my name is Veronica Pang and I’m currently attending UTS, also known as the University of Toronto Schools. Let me tell you this. I’m not part of the administration there, so I really have no concrete idea how they decide who to let in, but I do have the wealth of the actual experience on my hands, and I am here to share it with you.
"Daniel's SSAT scores in verbal were 710, in math they were 677 and in reading it was 710 with the total being 2097. Daniel got accepted by UTS and recently earned the John and Margaret Withrow scholarship making him one of the four (3 out of 4 are PREPSKILLS®' students) that were recipients of it.. We really appreciate the help PREPSKILLS® gave to him."
"Frankly, when I was first introduced to PREPSKILLS®, I thought it was just another preparation program that parents send their kids to in a frenzy, afraid that their own preparation plan wasn’t strong enough. After experiencing the benefits of PREPSKILLS®, I realized that I was partly right- the PREPSKILLS® staff taught me things that my parents would never have even thought of teaching me, but it was better than what even commercials described other programs as.
"Prepskills was a great experience. It did not feel like tutoring but at the same time my classmates and I learned a lot of things. Our awesome teacher taught us the concepts thoroughly and very well. They also provided a lot of helpful links. Their simulation tests felt exactly like the real one and after we finished it we set goals to improve ourselves. Their second stage seminar helped me prepare for the interview. Overall, the Prepskills course was fun and productive helping me getting into UTS! "
“Just want you to know that Karilyn, who took SSAT prep. In fall 2006 just got her SSAT upper level score back:
Verbal Score: 767 (Personal Score Range: 746 - 788, SSAT Percentile 96%)
Math Score: 791 (Personal Score Range: 770 - 800, SSAT Percentile 99%)
Reading Score: 710 (Personal Score Range: 689 - 731, SSAT Percentile 87%)
Total Score: 2268 (Personal Score Range: NA, SSAT Percentile 98%)
I am very proud of her and thanks for the help she got from your program."
“We have been successful and both Gereon and Constantin have been accepted at Mulgrave School. Thanks a lot again also to Meghan, she did a great job."
“My daughter had done the prep skills course which ended in Oct 2008. She completed her SSAT exams on the Nov 15, 2008. She did well in her exams and we would like to thank your program and the staff. Her scores read: V (710), Q (677), R (680) for a total of 2067 (98% overall).
“I recently got my report card, I found that I did a lot better than I could have hoped. I feel this is not only my own doing also that of PREPSKILLS. Although PREPSKILLS was initially intend to boost my SSAT mark (which it did), it also helped me in school by improving my confidence and vocabulary."
“PREPSKILLS® was a big help in preparing me for the SSAT and the UTS exam. I felt more confident after the PREPSKILLS® class and the program really focused on the integral part of the SSAT. Now that I am in UTS, I feel proud and grateful toward PREPSKILLS®."
“Miranda got the score '2007'. We got it only via post. Thank you for helping her to archive this goal."
