College Bound Genius is a boutique branch of the renowned Young Genius Educational Center located in downtown Los Gatos, CA. CBG specializes in all the necessary services which prepare your child to ascend to the next step in his life with the best possible arsenal.
We teach students in small groups or one-one-on so that we can focus on each student’s weaknesses and develop a curriculum to target those problem areas. Our teachers are from top colleges in California and are professionals in the Bay Area. They are well versed in the college process, thus our teachers not only help raise your child's entrance exam scores but they also mentor the student to reach his/her full potential and ultimately end up in the college of his/her dreams.
ACT Preparation
Students should aim to take at least one ACT plus writing, as it is a requirement for college admission. Students are encouraged to retake the test if they are not satisfied with their scores since The ACT allows students to chose which scores they would like colleges to see. Many students take the test twice, once as a junior and again as a senior. Usually students' see a 57% increase in their Composite score.
CBG is dedicated to improving our students' scores with either an intense specialized one-on-one training program targeting each students problem areas or with small group camps, meeting on an everyday basis. Usually within a week our students see 6 points (on a 30 point scale) increase in their sections' scores.
One-one-One Sessions
To receive an evaluation on your recommended one-on-one action plan, please contact us directly. Since every student is different CBG does not have a generic preparation plan available for your view. The amount of recommended sessions will vary according to each student's skill level.
Small Group Classes
If your child just needs basic preparation for the ACT or has never taken the ACT before CBG recommends small group preparation. These are 3 hour long daily ACT Preparation Classes in our Los Gatos Office, featuring 1 hour of science reasoning, 1 hour of math, and 1 hour of English and reading preparation. Students will learn the College Bound Genius approach to the test and gain skills of time management and problem solving.
CBG offers weekly summer packages because we understand our students have busy schedules, thus we let you, the customer come up with your own study plan. You can mix and match the weeks however you may prefer. The material taught during each week is not relevant to one another. Thus, if you choose not to attend classes consequentially it will not effect your preparation. As per CGB recommendation: we encourage our students to sign up for at least 3 weeks of sessions before they begin to see notable results.
