AP Reviews

It takes a huge weight off of our shoulders knowing that we have a dependable, successful test prep program to suggest to families and to help us keep everyone in our community informed. They are responsive to any questions we have and are quick to make class adjustments that work for our students and our boarding school schedule. The informative webinars that Compass does for families help us share the load of keeping parents/guardians up-to-date with testing trends. The webinars are recorded, so families can access them at any time that works for them (and we reference them often when families reach out to us in the 9th and 10th grade). Having worked with Compass at two different boarding schools, I'm happy to keep partnering with them as we navigate this ever-changing standardized testing landscape.
