"Dr. Pace's SAT Retreat program, with its encouragement of an all-around healthy lifestyle, teaches through life lessons, lessons that will get you through not only the SAT but also through a handful of situations.

It taught me essential tactics that will undoubtedly help me with future problem-solving." - Mary Kate Gasiewski, Nazareth Academy, class of 2010
"I think that this holistic approach is needed and could help anyone do better on PSATs and SATs. It is also very helpful and useful in everyday situations, not just for test-taking.
