Early-enrolled students will automatically receive thirteen additional weekly assignments allowing them to start their SAT preparation even earlier. The optional, independent lessons will include pre-recorded video lessons, practice sets, and a full-length practice PSAT allowing students to work at their own pace prior to the start of live classes in February 2025.
