A workshop consists of four two-hour classes in either English or math. In that workshop, different SAT and ACT topics are covered each of the four nights. If a student takes both Math and English workshops, the student will get 16 hours of instruction and practice.

In many test preparation courses there is too much focus on "beating the test."
