Recently a dear friend signed up for and completed a course “designed” to guarantee a significant bump in her MCAT score.
She was meticulous. She spent the months before the course taking practice exams, watching tutorial material, and studying MCAT material.
She did well on her assessment exam and did everything stated in the protocol provided by the company for the guarantee.
It did not take long to ascertain that the weekly “class” time was not content-rich, particularly helpful, or taught by experts in their fields.
Instructors tended to shoot the breeze, quip, and offer up nuggets of their lives over what might have actually helped—strategy and content specifically designed to train students to understand the test and the material.
Recently she took the MCAT and got a solid score, but not the guaranteed score.
Within minutes of contacting the company she was informed that they had rejected her request for either of the guarantee options—no course extension past one month and no money back.
Suddenly the company began to throw up barriers which expressly contradicted their written policies.
Please read this carefully and pass this story along to others.
Had she read it she would have saved herself 3000 dollars and been able to raise her score more effectively in the time they wasted on what has ended up being an expensive swindle.
