Failing to prepare is preparing to fail - John Wooden

Introduction

We at Future U are excited about the opportunity to introduce summer campers to the complex world of standardized testing. The SAT and ACT are very challenging exams. These exams require a significant amount of preparation to achieve high scores. A student who has a more thorough understanding of test taking strategies and techniques has a tremendous advantage. The Future U Training Camp is designed to provide students with a solid foundation of proven methodologies that can be applied to the various aspects of the SAT and ACT. Our unique program will enable students to gain a valuable head start in preparing to succeed on these extremely difficult tests.

Future U Training Camp

Highlights of the Future U accelerated summer program are as follows:

  • Students will be divided into groups of three to five
  • These groups will meet once a week for approximately three to four hours
  • During this time the groups will rotate through separate stations. Each station will cover a different aspect of the SAT and ACT
  • The length of the program will be approximately five weeks
  • Upon completion of the program students will have solid introduction to all of the aspects of both the SAT and ACT

Expectations of the Future U Training Camp

The Future U Training Camp is not intended to replace the overall preparation process that is conducted during our main Future U program. The Future U Training Camp will be a modified version of our main curriculum. The short period of time that we will be working with students during the summer Training Camp will not allow us to conduct our traditional test preparation program. We will selectively choose appropriate aspects of our main program depending on subject criticality, student needs and available teaching hours.

Main Future U Program

Since 2003, the Future U program has been recognized as one of the most rigorous preparation programs in the country. The program begins before the beginning of the junior year and lasts about eight to ten months depending on the student's individual needs. Each student attends approximately 30 one hour and fifteen minute one-on-one tutoring sessions. In addition, each student has the opportunity to take approximately 20 full-length practice exams. In total, each student completes over 100 hours of classroom instruction, and that does not include study time at home. We demand the most out of our students. The completion of our program has, in turn, helped students achieve their ultimate potential in test-taking.

We believe that an important component of successful test preparation is the quality of instruction. Our instructors go through an extremely selective hiring process that is focused on identifying superior teaching talent. We are focused on selecting instructors who display the following criteria:
