Elite Summer Boot CampThe SAT Summer Boot Camp provides more in-class instruction than any other program we offer. It is designed for students who are willing to commit most of their summer to improving their SAT scores. Students attend 4.5 hours of class each day, Monday through Friday, during the eight week summer program at Elite.

In the Critical Reading component of Boot Camp, students master the definitions of over 2000 SAT words and sharpen their critical reading skills by reading and analyzing challenging texts from a wide variety of academic disciplines. In the Math component, students are taught all the mathematical concepts tested on the SAT and given extensive problem sets to supplement their classroom lessons. Rounding out the program is the Writing component, in which students develop a strong foundation in English grammar and learn how to write strong essays.

Elite Winter Boot CampStudents who need an intensive review for the January SAT Reasoning Test and students who would like to jumpstart their preparation for the March test will benefit from taking our rigorous Winter Boot Camp. In this challenging eight-day course held during the winter break, students take a full-length SAT test in the morning, then attend 4.5 hours of test review and lecture in the afternoon. The course is comprehensive and covers all three sections of the SAT Reasoning Test: Critical Reading, Math, and Writing.

SAT Reasoning Test Preparation (During The School Year)The SAT Reasoning Test is the most widely used college admissions test in the United States. Admissions officers use the SAT to assess your skills in basic academic subjects that you will need to succeed in college: critical reading, mathematics, and writing. Because of the test's length, nearly four hours, and its importance in the admissions process, many students are intimidated by the SAT.

Elite's curriculum is designed to give the skills -- and the confidence -- to succeed on the SAT. Each week, students take a full-length practice test under realistic testing conditions, followed by three separate classes: Critical Reading, Math, and Writing. In these classes, students don't just review test questions. They build their vocabulary and learn college-level skills in verbal and mathematical reasoning as well as writing, all the while learning how these essential academic tools apply to the SAT. All three classes have extensive homework that reinforces the classroom lessons. This interlocking system of classes has a proven record of producing outstanding SAT scores, including many perfect scores. But just as importantly, it produces students who are ready for the academic rigors of college. At Elite, we don't just prepare you for a test. We prepare you for your future.

SAT Test Preparation includes:CRITICAL READING • MATH • WRITING • PRACTICE TESTS

2100 ProgramFor the highly motivated few who want to attain truly impressive SAT scores, Elite offers an extremely intensive fourteen-week program, requiring many hours of out-of-class work and preparation. The program’s aim is to develop college-level reading and writing skills and a thorough mastery of high school mathematics. Last year, almost all the students who successfully completed this class scored 2100 or higher on the actual SAT, putting them in the top 3% of students nationwide.

PSAT PreparationThe Preliminary SAT/National Merit Scholarship Qualifying Test is a standardized test that provides firsthand practice for the SAT Reasoning Test. It also gives high school juniors a chance to enter National Merit Scholarship Corporation (NMSC) scholarship programs. Students will be tested on their critical reading, math, and writing skills. Elite’s PSAT preparation program combines customized practice tests administered on a regular basis with weekly lessons that not only cover all major topics tested, but also delve into subject areas in greater depth than programs at most test prep agencies.

SAT Subject Test PreparationStudents applying to many four-year colleges must submit SAT Subject Test scores in addition to the SAT Reasoning Test score. SAT Subject Tests are offered in advanced level math, foreign language, history/social science, literature, and science. Students should consider taking SAT Subject Tests in the subjects that they are currently studying in high school, particularly if the school courses are advanced level and they have performed well in these courses.

Elite provides comprehensive preparation for many of the SAT Subject Tests consisting of weekly practice test sessions and review classes with instructors who not only are knowledgeable about the subjects they teach but also understand how to help students prepare effectively for the SAT Subject Tests.

Elite offers courses for the following SAT Subject Tests:BIOLOGY • CHEMISTRY • LITERATURE • MATH LEVEL 2 • PHYSICS • U.S. HISTORY • WORLD HISTORY

AP PreparationAdvanced Placement (AP) Courses offer students a chance to earn college credit and strengthen their college applications. Elite’s instructors are among the most knowledgeable available, because many are AP high school teachers or college instructors who are experts in their field. Contact your local branch for details.AP Preparation Courses Include:BIOLOGY • CALCULUS • CHEMISTRY • COMPUTER SCIENCE A • ENGLISH LANGUAGEENGLISH LITERATURE • EUROPEAN HISTORY • PHYSICS • U.S. HISTORY • WORLD HISTORY

ACT PreparationThe ACT is a nationally recognized college admissions exam whose results are accepted by four-year universities and colleges throughout the United States. The ACT consists of English, Math, Reading, and Science sections as well as an optional 30-minute Writing Test for universities that require a writing score. Elite’s ACT preparation program is a rigorous 4-week or 6-week course designed for students who are successful in Advanced Placement and Honors classes at their high schools and want to round out their college applications with impressive test scores.

TOEFL PreparationThe TOEFL is the most recognized and widely accepted English-language test in the world. High TOEFL scores are indicators of readiness for understanding and using academic English at a college level. The TOEFL is a common requirement for non-native applicants applying to colleges and universities in the United States and sometimes even a requirement for government agencies, businesses, or scholarship programs. Occupying a unique position in the test preparation space due to its international reach, Elite is well-qualified to provide international applicants to colleges and universities in the U.S. with the support they need to tackle the TOEFL and improve both their written and spoken English.

College Application & Interview WorkshopsElite offers two workshops to help seniors navigate the college application process. In the College Application Workshop, students learn how to write unique, memorable, and powerful personal essays. Teachers meet with students individually to proofread, critique, and revise multiple drafts until students have polished and compelling personal statements. In addition, teachers provide step-by-step guidance in completing college application forms.

The Interview Workshop focuses on the college interview, an experience most students find daunting. In this workshop, students have the opportunity to experience several mock interviews and receive constructive feedback from our specially trained teachers. After the workshop, students will be able to walk into their college interviews with a good sense of what kinds of questions to expect, how to converse actively with interviewers, and how to make the best impression possible.

ReadiPrep™ CoursesHigh school students have the SAT to gauge their readiness for college, but there has been no test for junior high students to prepare for the rigor of high school and college prep courses — until now. The College Board recently introduced a new test: ReadiStep. This two hour test will be used to identify students who have the potential to enroll in college prep classes even before they get to high school. As a leader in the field of education, Elite and its ReadiPrep™ courses are designed to help students develop skills they will be tested on such as reading, writing, and mathematics. Students will master foundational concepts that will help them get ahead of their peers.

ReadiPrep™ - EnglishElite’s ReadiPrep™ - English class is based on the strong correlation between extensive reading and competency in all the verbal skills – critical reading, writing, vocabulary, and grammar. If students start honing these skills at the junior high level, they will be miles ahead of the competition. Utilizing popular and educational works of literature, the ReadiPrep™ - English program will also focus on cultivating critical thinking skills. The extensive curriculum was designed to have students practice deeper reading. ReadiPrep™ - English goes beyond the traditional “book report” and will get students engaged in reading through activities with purpose, projects with content, and writing with power. The ReadiPrep™ - English program creates a learning environment in which students will gain all the necessary skills to succeed on the new ReadiStep test.

ReadiPrep™ - MathElite’s ReadiPrep™ Advance - Math is designed to help students master the concepts and problem solving techniques in the Pre-Algebra to Algebra II sequence. Each class presents the principles appropriate to a specific math level in a clear, easy-to-understand format. The students then apply these math principles to carefully constructed word problems and exercises developed to sharpen problem-solving skills and reinforce conceptual understanding at the same time.

Whitney High School (Cerritos, CA), Oxford Academy (Cypress, CA), and Troy High School (Fullerton, CA) are college preparatory public high schools for grades 7-12. As highly selective institutions, these schools require students to take entrance exams in order to be considered for admission. Having worked with a number of alumni from these prestigious schools over the years, Elite is intimately acquainted with the admissions process at each institution, giving applicants an edge in negotiating the often daunting set of tasks required of prospective students.

Whitney/Oxford/Troy High School Entrance Exam Preparation

The CELDT is a test administered to any K-12 student who speaks a language other than English at home. The CELDT identifies students who are English language learners, gauges their level of English proficiency, and measures their progress toward acquiring English proficiency. The CELDT, which is administered to English learners annually until they can demonstrate proficiency, consists of listening, speaking, reading, and writing components. Constantly working with students who often speak a language other than English at home, Elite has the perspective and resources to support students who are required to take these annual exams, propelling them toward English proficiency rapidly.

CELDT (The California English LanguageDevelopment Test)

For elementary and middle school students planning to apply to private and Catholic schools, we offer a specialized course designed to prepare students for the Independent School Entrance Examination (ISEE), Secondary School Admissions Test (SSAT), and High School Placement Test (HSPT). Classes are demanding, with considerable homework and in-class assignments.

Every year, the Center for Talented Youth (CTY) at Johns Hopkins University holds national and international talent searches to discover and assess outstanding academic youth. The search for the “talented” is carried out by having students in middle school take challenging college admissions exams like the SAT or ACT. CTY candidates include gifted students from all over the U.S. and from over 110 countries. In order to be eligible, students must score in the 95th percentile or higher on one or more subtests of a nationally recognized standardized test. As a leader in test preparation, Elite can help your students qualify for this prestigious program by providing them the knowledge and test-taking skills to tackle admissions exams at an early age.

Nitya SubramanianElite's test prep system emphasized the fundamental skills required to do well, thus enabling me to use what I learned at Elite outside of the context of the SAT itself. The extraordinary staff and extensive resources helped make studying for the SAT fun. Thanks for all the help!

Built my Confidence

2011Elite was great for preparing me for the SAT: The practice tests and the classes made the real test feel like just another standard test. I became more confident approaching the test and didn’t need to worry very much.

Elite helped me in more ways than I could count. Not only did I learn a great deal in their classes, their classes also kept me engaged. I couldn't have done it without the support of the teachers and the director here at Elite.

Mostafa Al-Alusi SAT 2400 / 2007 | Torrey Pines High, CA“I was originally against the idea of taking any SAT prep classes because I felt that my score was high enough and that I was only missing questions because I was unlucky. After attending Elite, not only did I start to get those questions right, but I also understood the reasoning behind them.”

Benjamin Dong SAT 2400 / 2006 | Irvine High, CA“The weekly practice tests and lessons, along with the excellent teaching staff, helped me achieve my full potential.”

Christina Zhu SAT 2400 / 2005 | University High, CA“The teachers and staff at Elite were all enthusiastic and incredibly supportive. Thank you for the rewarding experience!”

Carlos DomeneElite was absolutely instrumental to my success on the SAT standardized tests. The coursework was incredibly

effective, the classes were enjoyable, and the educational staff was engaged and friendly. Elite taught me the testing strategies that allowed me to score well, earning the test scores that I knew I was capable of. In large part, it is thanks to Elite that I was accepted to both CalTech and MIT. I would recommend Elite to any student.

cceptanceElite Success Stories

20

Elite's classes (and even more so, the consultations) were considerably the best help I have ever received out of the many

tutoring services I have been through. Reflecting back, the classes provided the practice I needed for consistency and undoubtedly prepared me for the SAT's. The consultations with Randolf proved not only to be educational, but also extremely enjoyable (an experience that I feel is rather devoid at other tutoring places today). I definitely attribute my college acceptance to Elite.

Acceptance to Stanford

Adrienne TranElite not only helped me improve my score on the SAT, but also helped to hone my English grammar and essay-writing skills -- a lot more so than many of my formal English classes. My teachers were all extremely knowledgeable, motivating, and engaging. I also loved how teachers weren't passive, but actually took an active role in helping me to improve my score. Even though a lot of the material tested on the SAT may not be directly applicable to real life, going through problems during SAT class pushed me to solve problems when I thought it couldn't be done, and see new, different perspectives of literature, which have definitely prepared me for college.

Washington High, San Francisco, CA

I've seen firsthand that Elite's staff truly cares deeply about its students and does everything it can to help them succeed. The

quality of education and learning environment at Elite is definitely top notch and can't be matched by any other institution. Elite thoroughly prepares you for the SAT. Thanks to the strategies I learned through Elite, I received 800 on both the writing and critical reading portions of the SAT.

At Elite, we strive to give students the personal, targeted attention that they may not be getting in school. And rather than focusing on test "tricks", we teach and foster the fundamental skills that underlie the SAT-- how to read critically and how to organize

one's thoughts in writing to effectively communicate an idea. Our small class sizes allow our students to take advantage of both individualized guidance from their teachers and the benefits of small group dynamics. Along with a proven curriculum and experienced counselors,  Elite excels in a way that other prep centers simply cannot.

I enjoy working at Elite because the students are eager, the materials are excellent, and I'm sure that I'm giving students skills they need not only for the SAT and other tests, but also to do well in their future academic lives and careers. It's rewarding to be able

to see students' critical thinking and writing skills blossom throughout their time with us. I'm proud of the service we provide and the high quality of our instruction.

Jessica Haile Irvine

As a university professor, I appreciate the academic skills, self-discipline, and confidence that students develop at Elite. Our students are highly prepared for their college careers.

A lot has changed in the field of education these past twenty-five years. The SAT has gone through two major revisions. College admissions have grown increasingly competitive due to a dramatic increase in the number of school-age children. High school students can now take AP classes in new subjects such as Chinese Language and Culture, Economics, and Environmental Science. College coursework on a high school student’s transcript has now become standard fare on applications to the most competitive colleges. But one thing over the last twenty-five years has

remained constant: Elite Educational Institute’s commitment to helping our students maximize their academic potential and realize their educational dreams. From humble beginnings as one branch in

Southern California in 1987 to more than thirty-five branches worldwide two decades later, Elite has faculty and staff that have

remained true to the principle that the success of our company relies on the success of our students. No other company can match the kind of individualized attention, personalized academic advising, and sophisticated curriculum that Elite provides.

– LOS ANGELES TIMES / AUGUST 10, 1997

– LOS ANGELES TIMES / AUGUST 29, 2008

“Julia Chang, 16, ...spent eight weeks of her summer immersed in an SAT boot camp run by Elite Educational Institute, which was founded more than two decades ago in a Koreatown storefront.”

“At Elite...service mainly for high achieving students, hard work is standard.”

Cheng spent the summer at an SAT prep program called Elite Educational Institute in Irvine, taking dozens of practice exams. She said the real test, which she took Oct. 10, was easier than the practice ones.

“During her prep course – offered through fee-based Elite Educational Institute in Irvine – Xu sat through 12 full-length practice tests and spent about 10 hours at home every week completing all of the suggested review materials.”
