The inside story on our amazing courses

The following is a selection of just a few of the comments students have made about our GRE Weekend Course:

"The Course was simply AWESOME in all aspects."

Patrick Vergin
New York, NY



"I highly recommend this course to everyone! The test taking strategies are invaluable. Our instructor had a wonderful personality and was an excellent teacher."

Mary Ballard
Orlando, FL



"The PowerScore course was a solid introduction for the GRE, I highly recommend it to anyone preparing for the test. The course gave me an understanding of what to expect, plan for, and improve on when preparing for the exam. Our instructor exceeded the expectations I had for the course! She did more than give an overview. She was clear in her explanation of the material and had a genuine concern for everyone's understanding and improvement of the material covered. Her expertise on the material was incredible. Her talent and intelligence is rare and I hope she receives generous compensation for her ability. I strongly suggest giving her a pay raise!"

Jeridan Frye
Los Angeles, CA



"The prep course this weekend is worth more than $395. My score has tripled since Friday! I feel ready to conquer the world."

Cora Summers
Columbus, OH



"Thanks so much for a great class! I really appreciated the small and interactive environment.

I took the GRE last Wednesday and raised my score 240 points! It's interesting because Math has never been my strong suit. However, after the class, some one-on-one tutoring and lots of studying, my Math score was HIGHER than my verbal score this time! I couldn't believe it! It was still a tough test but I felt more confident, had a better strategy and was better prepared this time. The BEST part is however, I found out yesterday that I have been accepted to graduate school at the University of Florida!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :0)

Thanks for all your help!"

Holly Meade



"The course really helped me understand the GRE and introduced some important strategies to use when you encounter difficult items. I especially found the math review, Backplugging, and Numerical Approximation very helpful. In the verbal section, all the strategies were extremely helpful and they helped increase my confidence in tackling the GRE."

"I enrolled in the PowerScore GRE prep class to try to do a quick review of math and get verbal tips in order to increase my score. The course was an excellent review of the math (of which I had not had since 1970). I really enjoyed the teacher because he never said no to any question. He tried to explain each step so that all the members of the course were on the same page for learning."

"Prior to taking the Powerscore GRE Weekend, I had been studying on my own, and unfortunately, I wasn't having much success.
After taking the PowerScore course, I feel much more comfortable with the test and I understand what sections I need to focus on.
The instructor was great and the class felt more like a group discussion as opposed to a lecture.
I would highly recommend the course and I believe that it has better prepared me to take the GRE's.
Thanks!"

Anne Cain

"Outstanding 2-day course. Catherine was phenomenal. She was able to explain things very well and I feel a whole lot better about the actual GRE test. This was money well spent and I will highly recommend it to others.
Thanks,"

Kimberly E. Williams

"The instructor was great and helped me to understand everything!!! Thank you so much for helping me to understand the GRE!!! I would definitely tell my friends to take this course as a prep!!!"

Joe Ezrati

"Our instructor did an excellent job in supplying us with practical strategies for taking the GRE. The wealth of information that was provided in just two sessions was a pleasant surprise! The ball is in my court now!"

Shaun Fletcher

"The PowerScore course was awesome and really did an exemplary job of breaking down all of the dynamics of the GRE. Even though I'd already taken the test previous to the class, I still walked away with a much better feeling of what I needed to do to improve my scores and tackle the pressure situations that come with the GRE. The instructor was patient, efficient, and very understanding. Overall the course is a real steal, especially when compared to some of the other options on the market. I'd recommend this course to anyone serious about doing well on the GRE."

Lucas Wolf
Denver, CO



"PowerScore was a great help in preparing for the GRE. The format of the written material, structure of the class, and technique for teaching is well suited for those of us who have spent significant time away from an academic setting. Moreover, the affordable price (relative to other popular courses) fit into my full time working and parenting budget. I would highly recommend PowerScore to any person who needs to score competitively on the GRE."

Bernard Hill

"The GRE weekend course was really good. The instructor peresented the information very clearly and also provided tips for test preparation and strategies. We covered a ton of information in such a short time...Overall, the class really was great. It was a very cost and time effective way for me to prepare for the GRE. I feel confident that I will get the score needed to be accpeted into my graduate program of choice. Thanks PowerScore...and thanks Mark - you are a very thorough, informative and PATIENT instructor!"

Jason Neidrich
