We have found that actively monitoring a student’s standardized test-taking skills is essential for superior test preparation. Moreover, our proctoring  department has proven that the more a student tests in a realistic setting with pragmatic conditions and with a group of his or her peers, the less likely the student will succumb to anxiety and freeze up on the official exam.  By exposing and addressing students’ anxiety levels through the proctored exam process, we are able to address any issue well in advance of the actual test.

The Institute’s proctors are trained to assess student’s progress minute-by-minute, thereby evaluating and addressing students’ standardized test-taking habits. Our proctors take extensive notes as they monitor students during a simulated examination, noting areas with particular problems or passages to be addressed later with a tutor. We offer proctored exams 2-5 times a week.
