In this episode, we'll crack the code on the all-new Digital SAT. We're joined by the amazing Dr. Shaan Patel, founder of Prep Expert, the company that's helped over 100,000 students conquer standardized tests and land in top colleges. Dr. Patel is also a Shark Tank success story with over 20 years of experience cracking the SAT code.
Dr. Patel will break down the Digital SAT, college admissions in 2024, and your teen's scholarship options. Get ready to take notes!
Key Takeaways➡️ The new digital SAT is a significant change from the paper-based exam. Students need to get familiar with the new version.
➡️ Taking the SAT or ACT is still important, even at test-optional colleges, as it can increase acceptance rates and eligibility for scholarships.
➡️ There are over $7 billion in merit-based scholarships awarded annually, and many of them consider test scores in the selection process.
➡️ Top universities have started to reinstate SAT and ACT score requirements due to the difficulty of differentiating students based on GPA and extracurricular activities alone.
➡️ Motivation is key in test preparation. Helping students identify their why, whether it's getting into a specific college, winning scholarships, or achieving personal goals, can drive their motivation to study and improve their scores.
➡️ Parents and students should consider applying to colleges that offer merit-based financial aid, as Ivy League universities often do not provide such aid. Broadening the college application pool can increase the chances of receiving scholarships and reducing the cost of college.
Meet Shaan PatelDr. Shaan Patel, MD, MBA, is founder and CEO of Prep Expert. As seen on ABC's Shark Tank, Prep Expert is an education company that has helped more than 100,000 students improve their SAT and ACT scores and get into top colleges. Dr. Patel has more than twenty years of experience in SAT prep and has published more than ten books on the subject of test preparation. A board-certified dermatologist, Dr. Patel was named one of Inc. magazine's "30 Under 30." He holds degrees from Yale University and the University of Southern California.

In today’s world teenagers are expected to excel in every aspect of their lives—academics, extracurriculars, work, and more. Parents want more than anything for their children to succeed so they often take on a lot of the responsibility and stress themselves. But perhaps we need to take a pause for a moment and question what we mean by success. Could this hyper-focus on achievement actually be hindering rather than helping our children thrive.
In this episode Dr. Cam is thrilled to have Julie Lythcott-Haims with us. She sparks a national dialogue challenging conventional parenting wisdom in her acclaimed book, "How to Raise an Adult," and her TED Talk, "How to Raise Successful Kids—Without Overparenting," boasting over 7 million views (many of which are Dr. Cam’s!)
