How are score bands assigned?
Learners identify their score band when registering for a Bootcamp and our Bootcamp series are organized into three different score ranges: 400-490, 500-590, and 600-690. By assigning a specific score range to each series, we can ensure that tutors work with a group of learners at a similar learning level and tailor lessons more specifically to them.
These score bands are randomly assigned to tutors based on expected learner demand. We are confident that all tutors can tutor any score band because all tutors have scored 700+ on an SAT section and we provide additional guidance on how to differentiate within the curriculum.
Can I request to have a different score band assigned to me?
Effective August 4, 2025: We’re not able to change score band assignments once they’re set. This keeps things clear for learners who register, and helps scheduling run smoothly.
Feeling nervous about your band? Totally normal—you’ve got this, and your learners are lucky to have you. Eager to stretch up? We love the ambition—bring that energy to your current group this cycle.
If something truly prevents you from tutoring this band, please cancel your series as early as possible so learners can rebook. We hope you’ll stick with it—we’re cheering you on.
