RECENT RESULTS FROM OUR PREP CLASSES: BIG ADVANTAGE...

... Compared to taking exam with any other class, or without a class. The recent stats are overwhelming:

> On fully SEVEN exams given summer 2026, the ONLY ones to pass were our students. Plus, on 5 other exams in this period, all but 1 of the passers were ours. So, on a third of the exams administered, our students were the only ones to pass or all but 1 of passers.

> Sept 23-24 exams: 5 of 29 passed overall (17%), but 3 of the 5 were our students.

> Aug 5 exam: 1 out of 12 passed statewide (8%), but that 1 passer took our class.

> July 11 exam: 10 of 63 passed (16%), and at least 6 of the 10 passers were our students.

> July 1 exam: 1 out of 18 passed (6%), but that 1 passer took our class.
> Jun 17 exam: all 5 who passed had taken our class.
> Jun 13 exam: at least 10 of 15 of the passers were ours, of 100 who took the exam.

> Jun 10, 11 & 13 exams: 126 took exam, only 18 passed overall, but 12 of the 18 passers were our students. (So, for Jun 10-17 exams: 6 out of 146 passed without taking us -- only a 4% pass rate, compared to the 74% of passers who took our class.)

> First fall '25 exams under the new process: 7 of 44 passed, & 5 of the 7 were our students (Sep 10), then the next day 5 of 25 passed, & 2 of 5 were ours. And so on, all last year and this.

... Consider these odds when others claim "results," plus more differences, at the WHY US? page. Realistically, trying to pass with no class or a different one is a huge uphill climb, whatever their generalized ads claim. Numbers don't lie. Comparable results 2024 and later are detailed at https://youtu.be/7tcm8_698dY?si=sJil61cSzhQvE_Vx
