“With my SAT scores now within the competitive range for UF and other Florida schools, I approach the college application process with newfound confidence and optimism!”
Hello everyone, my name is Adriana Vingerhoets and I’m currently a senior at MAST Academy. Peace of Pi Learning has been a huge help for me as I navigated the daunting realm of SAT preparation during my junior and senior years at Terra Environmental. Before enrolling in the program, I found myself stuck in a rut with SAT scores plateauing at a dismal 1280. Despite my best efforts at self-study through platforms like Khan Academy, I struggled to stay organized and motivated without structured guidance.
However, upon hearing glowing reviews from my cousin, whose scores saw a remarkable improvement through Peace of Pi Learning, I knew I had to give it a shot. Witnessing firsthand the impressive results achieved by others convinced me that this was the path to boosting my own scores, which were falling short of the requirements for my dream college, UF.
What I appreciated most about Peace of Pi Learning was the tailored approach to learning. As someone who thrives with hands-on guidance and structured assignments, the program provided the direction I needed to focus my efforts effectively. Even though I had a solid foundation in math, I was lacking the SAT-specific strategies and time management skills I needed to succeed.
The virtual learning environment exceeded my expectations, offering a supportive and engaging platform for honing my skills. Unlike the ineffective online learning experiences I endured during the Covid pandemic, Peace of Pi Learning provided a structured curriculum with interactive sessions and rigorous assignments that kept me engaged and motivated.
The workload was definitely really hard though, I can’t lie! However, I found that breaking down the workload into manageable chunks and staying disciplined with my study schedule allowed me to tackle the coursework effectively without feeling overwhelmed. The homework assignments, while initially intimidating, proved to be invaluable in reinforcing concepts and honing my test-taking skills. Through consistent practice and regular completion of practice tests, I gradually began to see improvement in my scores and confidence levels.
The results achieved through Peace of Pi Learning have had a profound impact on my college aspirations. With my SAT scores now within the competitive range for UF and other Florida schools, I approach the college application process with newfound confidence and optimism. Additionally, the strategies and skills I acquired through the program have not only benefited me in SAT preparation but have also proven useful in my current AP Statistics course.
Peace of Pi Learning has been instrumental in transforming my academic trajectory and empowering me to reach my full potential. I wholeheartedly recommend this program to any student seeking to excel academically and achieve their college aspirations!
