🚨 Weddings + Boat Wrecks, the Land Down Under, and a Perfect Score?!

Mr. John’s Test Prep Weekly • April 12, 2025

Hello MJTP families!

Thank you for your patience and flexibility with lessons at the end of March. My wife and I celebrated our marriage and honeymoon in scenic Highlands, NC. It was much colder than Florida, but a refreshing break and beautiful weather.

This week we’ve also got regatta captains tipping boats, Australian gamers slaying math sections, and students making major moves toward their SAT goals.

⛵ She's Back—And She Loves Danger!

One of our favorite students is back—and this time she's not just sailing into her SAT prep, she's also the Captain of her school’s regatta team. In between mastering the Reading & Writing section, she’s leading her crew on the water.

šŸŽ„ Warning! Dangerous video footage!

Yes, she capsized during a race. Legend.

šŸŒ Shoutout to Marcus from Australia

Marcus is officially my first student from Australia and is crushing the Math section—he’s nearly untouchable there. We’re working now on boosting his Verbal scores. Did I mention he’s also kind of a big deal at Valorant? Kid’s got range.

šŸ“š Lorelei’s 60-Point Glow Up

Lorelei came in ready to work—and it shows. In just a few lessons (while holding down a full-time job!), she bumped her SAT Verbal score by 60 points. That’s not easy. She earned every point.

šŸ’Æ Ethan: A Perfect Score in Practice

Ethan’s awaiting his official results, but get this—he hit a perfect Verbal score on one of the toughest Bluebook Practice SATs. That’s elite territory. We’re proud no matter what the College Board spits out.

šŸ“ˆ Randeep’s Still Climbing

After a solid score increase on his last test, Randeep’s back at it and gearing up for both May and June SATs. We’re dialing in vocabulary, structure questions, and timed endurance. Big moves ahead.

Behind the Scenes: SAT Resource Central

I’m working on something BIG—an all-in-one space for mock tests, lessons, drills, and strategy breakdowns. Think: Bluebook + Khan Academy + Wyzant+ Me, all in one clean, intuitive platform.

Here’s your sneak peek:

It’s called Tutorstack, and it’s coming soon.


ā€œFall in love with the process, and the results will come.ā€

Consistent practice of the fundamentals—timing, structure, and elimination—is the real secret sauce to dominating this test. My top scorers don’t just study hard—they study smart, with consistency and feedback built in.


ā˜€ļø Ready for Summer SATs?

May, June, August. They’re coming fast. If you want to lock in for a summer test, reach out now. Limited spots, as always.
