Outcomes, not lecture notes.
Set SMART goals tailored to your current SAT score and target score, then build a personalized study plan around them
Apply punctuation rules for commas, semicolons, and colons to confidently eliminate wrong answers on Writing questions
Use context clues to tackle fill-in-the-blank Reading and Writing questions without second-guessing yourself
Identify high-frequency question patterns in SAT Reading passages so you know exactly what the test is asking before you read
Solve linear equations, quadratic equations, functions, and inequalities — the Algebra 1 and 2 concepts that dominate SAT Math
Navigate the SAT's provided formula sheet strategically, so you spend time solving, not searching
Manage your pacing across both test sections using time-allocation strategies that prevent running out of time
Analyze diagnostic test results to pinpoint your weakest skill areas and focus your study where it counts most

Focused on transforming standardized test outcomes, Paige Lavelle leverages her expertise in learning design to create innovative, interactive SAT and ACT lessons. Her personalized instruction breaks down complex test concepts into manageable strategies, empowering students to boost their scores and excel on exam day.
The SAT 2-Week Bootcamp is an intensive, results-driven course designed for high school students who want to walk into test day with a real strategy — not just crossed fingers. Over two weeks, students tackle the exact skills the SAT tests most: punctuation and grammar rules, algebra and geometry concepts, critical reading comprehension, and time management under pressure. Every session combines targeted instruction with SAT-style practice so students can immediately apply what they learn. Whether you're aiming to break 1200 for the first time or push past 1400, this bootcamp gives you the tools, the plan, and the confidence to hit your goal.
What This Bootcamp Is — and Who It's For
The SAT 2-Week Bootcamp is a focused, high-intensity course built for students who are serious about improving their SAT scores and want expert guidance to get there faster. Rather than reviewing every topic in a textbook, this course zeroes in on the concepts and question types the SAT actually tests most — and teaches students how to approach them systematically. It's ideal for students preparing for an upcoming test date who want structure, accountability, and real practice, not just passive review.
Goal Setting and Personalized Study Planning
The bootcamp kicks off by helping students set SMART goals — Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Relevant, and Time-bound — so every study session has a clear purpose. Students analyze their diagnostic test results early in the course to identify exactly where they're losing points, then use that data to build personalized study plans that prioritize their weakest areas. This isn't a one-size-fits-all approach: students learn to use self-reflection tools and performance tracking (including Khan Academy integration) to continuously adjust their preparation as they improve.
Reading and Writing: Grammar, Punctuation, and Comprehension
On the verbal side, the bootcamp covers two major skill sets. First, students master the punctuation and grammar rules that appear repeatedly on the SAT Writing section — including when to use commas vs. semicolons vs. colons, how to identify sentence boundary errors, and how to use process of elimination to knock out wrong answers with confidence. Second, students build critical reading skills: recognizing the recurring question patterns in SAT Reading passages, using context clues to infer meaning, and breaking down complex texts to extract the main idea quickly. Fill-in-the-blank vocabulary-in-context questions get special attention, with strategies for using the surrounding passage to choose the precise word the test is looking for.
Math: Formulas, Algebra, and Problem-Solving Strategy
The math portion of the bootcamp covers the Algebra 1 and Algebra 2 concepts that make up the bulk of SAT Math: linear equations, quadratic equations, functions, systems of equations, and inequalities. Students also work through essential geometry — area, volume, and coordinate geometry — and learn how to use the SAT's provided formula sheet as an active tool rather than an afterthought. A major focus is on problem-solving efficiency: students practice recognizing which formula or concept applies, setting up problems correctly, and moving through questions without getting stuck. Flashcard-building sessions help students lock in the formulas not provided on the test.
Test-Taking Strategy and Confidence Under Pressure
Knowing the content is only half the battle — the other half is executing on test day. Throughout the bootcamp, students practice time management strategies for both sections, learning how to pace themselves so they can attempt every question without rushing or freezing. They develop a reliable process of elimination habit that improves accuracy even on questions where they're unsure, and they practice strategic guessing techniques for when time is short. Managing test anxiety is also addressed directly: students build the mental habits and routines that keep them focused and calm when it counts most. By the final session, students leave with both the skills and the mindset to perform at their best.
