4. What PrepMe Is
“Adaptive, personalized online test prep”
Test Prep: Get better test scores… for the right reasons.
Online: Anytime, anywhere.
Personalized: No student receives a plan of study without
telling us what he’s learned and how much longer he has
to learn.
Adaptive: No plan of study survives first contact with the
student.

against a profile of skills needed for the
ACT or SAT.

date, PrepMe prepares weekly plans of
study, taking into account students’

Editor's Notes
Explain structure through history:Started as consumer productShifted focus to institutionsAcquired by Hobsons (Naviance)
Focus on native functionality and student flow.Limited comments on integration potential.
Start to address metacognition:Second major bullet is about moving students from passive learners to active learners who can envision their own progress along a learning pathThird major bullet is about empowering students by showing them that learning is not a straight line from A to B
Emphasize PrepMe as classroom support tool
Explain “ROI” bit as ironic and intentional: student learning is a major return, but why is it a counseling investment?Address usage across platforms.
