Our Story
I am the other student…
How do we know the sting of performing poorly on the big test?
Because I was the other student. I was the student that chose the wrong test prep and bombed the exam and went to my second choice college.
You see, as a Junior in high school, I enrolled in a popular online test prep course (that I promise you’ve heard of).
I hated it so much that I quit after 2 days. And I actually got worse at the test.
And you know the most painful part?
The most painful part was NOT the rejection letter I got from the school with the iconic emblem.
The worst part was giving up, failing to improve, and wondering if I could have achieved more.
That’s why – of all things – I started a test prep company with online courses.
Test Prep unlike any other
It is amazing how a simple choice as how to prepare for a test can fundamentally alter the direction of a student’s life, but that is exactly what happens.
You see, test prep is not school. Test prep is not about learning a new academic skill. It’s not even about answering thousands of questions… Test prep is about learning the test – and how to get as many questions correct as possible.
And that is what Classic Test Prep is all about – getting the best results on the CLT exam.
The Best Investment to Make
Put us to the test with our Classic Test Prep Guarantee.
If you are not satisfied with your score. If you did not improve by at least 5 points – we will give you a full money-back guarantee refund.
And those 5 points can be worth thousands – or even tens of thousands – in scholarships for the dream college.
What Makes Us Different
Real Preparation
This isn't school. Some test prep programs try to be your reading, grammar, and math teachers. We're your test tutors. If you need to learn something about reading, grammar, or math to improve your score, we'll teach you. But we're here to prepare for the test. Don't take this the wrong way. We love deeply meaningful education. Great books. Beautiful science. Inspiring music, art, and history. But that's not what you came to our website for. And it's not what we're going to give you. If you want a better CLT score, you came to the right page.
Death by a million Practice Questions
You do NOT need to take a million practice questions that cover every topic, even those you may not see on test day. In fact, taking too many practice questions, especially when you can't see how they fit into the context of a full test, can be detrimental. But you do need to take some practice tests. Every single question you'll be asked to answer in our Study Guide is a realistic test question. And, in order to unlock your Money-Back Guarantee, you only need to answer a total of 360 questions, all in the context that you would see them in on test day. If you want to practice more, great! There are more (optional) questions for you.
Energizing Path to Success
Once enrolled in the Study Guide, you will always know how much you have completed and how much you have left. And you'll know exactly why you're taking the lessons you're taking. Then, you can have the support of a real human being to answer your questions, reinforce the things you have learned, encourage you, and keep you accountable on your path to success. You're not alone in this. And your path is clear. Complete the Verbal Reasoning, Grammar & Writing, and Quantitative Reasoning Study Guides, as well as One Full CLT Practice Test, and you'll unlock our Money-Back Guarantee, which you can read about below!

Michael Craig
Hillsdale College ‘22 Co-Founder & Tutor
A graduate of Hillsdale College and Hillsdale Academy, Michael believes his classical education provided a firm foundation for his life.
“Even though I didn’t want to go to Hillsdale College for most of my life, it was the best thing that could have happened. I know how hard it is to take the right step forward after high school and want to help students do just that.”
After working one on one with students on the ACT and SAT, Michael heard about the Classic Learning Test. He and Scott quickly acted on their shared passion for Classical Education to become the first test prep company that focuses on the CLT.
