Co-curricular Track Record: Humanitarian Organization for Migration Economics Club, Harvard Model Congress; various community service projects.
Background: After being disappointed in his initial applications to college, Clay sought out help from us to make a more successful second application. Being in full-time National Service during the application process meant that he had a very limited amount of time that we could work together.

Co-curricular Track Record: Case Officer Humanitarian Organization of Migration Economics, Silver Medal at the International Biomedical Olympiad, Bronze Medal at Singapore Science and Engineering Fair, Asian Scientist Writing Prize Honorable Mention.

Stage One: Laying the foundations of the your application
[su_row] [su_column size=”1/3″]
A Principal mentor and admin manager will set up a initial meeting with each student. During this session, the consultancy team will conduct a comprehensive interview of the student to understand his/her goals, personality, strengths and weaknesses, personal interests, and key life experiences. This candidate profiling will help us to determine how best to enhance your application.
[/su_column] [su_column size=”1/3″]
We will review the student’s profile and prepare an action plan. An experienced mentoring team with mentors from the potential universities will assess the student’s overall strengths and weaknesses, current application statistics and probability of successful entry to desired colleges.
[/su_column] [su_column size=”1/3″]
Under the principal mentor’s supervision, we will construct a list of potential colleges. The list will comprise of schools broken down into the following categories – “Dream”, “Reach” and “Safety” schools. This will include in-depth and honest discussions with the client in order to align expectations.- Depending on the timeframe to application, the consultants may also make suggestions for the student to undertake particular projects or activities to enhance his resume.
[/su_column] [/su_row]
Stage Two: Refining your application
[su_row] [su_column size=”1/2″]
A personalised application strategy and roadmap will be developed and we expect 10 to 20 rounds of brainstorming and essay reviews by our mentors. We believe that every individual has a unique story to tell. The mentors will guide the students to formulate essay ideas which reflect unique characteristics, strengths and life experiences.
[/su_column] [su_column size=”1/2″]
The team will proceed to advise the student on the application process itself, according to timelines drawn up in the roadmap. The finalised documents will be reviewed by the principal mentor prior to submission to ensure no mistakes are made.

ACT or the SAT?
While colleges do not prefer one exam over the other, there are crucial differences in exam structure and skills tested. As a result, students may find themselves with a natural affinity for one or the other. It is therefore important to find which test will allow you to best showcase your abilities and leave a lasting impression.

[su_heading size=”35″ margin=”45″]Differences between SAT and ACT[/su_heading]
[su_note note_color=”#f4f4f4″ radius=”0″ class=”Note1″]
Science Section: The ACT comes with a science section that doesn’t require prior knowledge, but tests your ability to read and interpret data, graphs, and experimental results. While knowledge in science is not required, comfort with scientific language will aid in this section as some students may be thrown off by the constant use of scientific jargon. The SAT does not have a science section at all.
Different Essays: For the ACT, you’re required to write a persuasive argument on a debatable issue while evaluating three different arguments on it while the SAT will ask you to evaluate a 650-700 word passage on how the author builds his/her argument.
Reading Comprehension: The ACT English section does not require a high reading level to understand its passages while the SAT passages will come in varying difficulty; SAT passages usually range from a high school level to early college.
Math Section: While the SAT comes with a non-calculator section as well as a calculator section, on the ACT a calculator is permitted for the whole math portion of the test. The Math Section of the SAT will also have a fill-in-the-blanks portion which again, the ACT does not. Information tested is broadly similar with the ACT testing a little more advanced algebra and trigonometry.
Time: The ACT is a much more time intensive test that gives you much less time to solve each problem while the SAT is relatively generous with pacing.

Our highly rated curriculum is intelligently designed by subject experts to help each student maximize his or her potential. Each ACT and SAT educator go through the official tests countless times to break down all possible question types and patterns, deciphering the most difficult of questions to develop a holistic curriculum to address all iterations of the tests. With an unparalleled track record, our courses have seen students aiming for 1500 and beyond on their first attempt at the SAT and 33 for the ACT. Professional guidance and targeted help have remained our code of excellence and our courses are taught by experienced SAT/ACT tutors from Ivy League and top universities like Oxford and Yale, and are widely received. At Quintessential, we believe that doing well is about understanding how the paper is set, how to master the skills, and how to make each practice count.

ACT or the SAT?
While colleges do not prefer one exam over the other, there are crucial differences in exam structure and skills tested. As a result, students may find themselves with a natural affinity for one or the other. It is therefore important to find which test will allow you to best showcase your abilities and leave a lasting impression.

[su_note note_color=”#f4f4f4″ radius=”0″ class=”Note1″]
Science Section: The ACT comes with a science section that doesn’t require prior knowledge, but tests your ability to read and interpret data, graphs, and experimental results. While knowledge in science is not required, comfort with scientific language will aid in this section as some students may be thrown off by the constant use of scientific jargon. The SAT does not have a science section at all.
Different Essays: For the ACT, you’re required to write a persuasive argument on a debatable issue while evaluating three different arguments on it while the SAT will ask you to evaluate a 650-700 word passage on how the author builds his/her argument.
Reading Comprehension: The ACT English section does not require a high reading level to understand its passages while the SAT passages will come in varying difficulty; SAT passages usually range from a high school level to early college.
Math Section: While the SAT comes with a non-calculator section as well as a calculator section, on the ACT a calculator is permitted for the whole math portion of the test. The Math Section of the SAT will also have a fill-in-the-blanks portion which again, the ACT does not. Information tested is broadly similar with the ACT testing a little more advanced algebra and trigonometry.
Time: The ACT is a much more time intensive test that gives you much less time to solve each problem while the SAT is relatively generous with pacing.

“The SAT lessons are very and engaging and personal, as both Sean and Andrew take great efforts to tailor the lesson to suit the students. They apply novel techniques towards tackling the SAT by appropriately focusing on the rules of the language and the skills necessary to answer questions that most SAT resources ignore. They unravel the questions and answer options, employing them as opportunities to learn and understand the patterns of the SAT.” —Jovin L., 2015
