A radically democratic reboot of the test-prep industry A real paradigm shift. I think they are really trying to change this from test preparation to an educational opportunity. Designed to help level the playing field for all students interested in taking the SAT and preparing for college-level courses. A first-generation student or low- income student might be better now because it’s actually through hard work. They engaged with the Khan Academy system, worked on the skills the high school maybe wasn’t preparing adequately for or didn’t have a chance to learn
