Dear Attiya and Latif,

Your SAT test prep program has impacted my life in many good ways. Unlike many other SAT programs, the NCAS Learning Center fosters academic excellence in a caring atmosphere. The NCAS Learning Center prepares students for more than just the SATs.

I was recently admitted to the Cummings School of Veterinary Medicine at Tufts University for early admission into their Doctor of Veterinary Medicine program, part in thanks to my SAT scores. Now, I don't have to the take the GREs or go through the hassle/expense of applying to multiple graduate programs, and I will be a veterinarian in six years! (Tufts is my top choice for post-graduate education.)

The College Prep Program at NCAS opened my eyes to many different schools and opportunities, and I was admitted to all 8 undergraduate programs I applied to, including Cornell University. Currently, I attend the University of Massachusetts, Amherst, where I receive a large scholarship, dependent on high school class rank and SAT score. I also did not have to take freshman writing at UMass because my critical reading and writing score on the SATs were very high; I was automatically given credit for the course.

Having attended a vocational high school, I was worried that I was not well prepared for the SATs. Your class significantly improved my SAT scores from my PSAT scores, and I only had to take the SATs once.

Thank you for your support. The time, effort, and money spent on your SAT prep class has come back and then some. I wouldn't be where I am today without your help.

Sincerely,
Laura Mahoney
