Your tutors were superb! Brad improved 30 points in his math score, (400-430), but the huge improvement for him came in the critical reading section. He jumped from 450-570! Added together, he moved from 850, (roughly 24th percentile), to 1000, (right at the 50th percentile). His 570 score placed him in the 70th percentile in critical reading. His previous score put him in the 20th percentile. According to the College Board website, students improve 20 points on average when they retake the SAT. Brad did 7 times better than that, and it is due to the good work of your tutors. The noise you hear in the background are all of the slamming doors that are now being reopened for Brad because of his new SAT score. He also pulled a 3.5 GPA this last trimester at Capital, so things are definitely looking up for him academically.
