DAT Coaching – Ace The DAT

A plan built around
your score gap.

Not a package selected off a menu. On the strategy call, Thomas looks at where you are, which schools you're targeting, and what your score actually needs to be - then maps the program to your specific timeline. Every program starts there.

Who You're Working With

You work with the person
responsible for your result.

Not a tutor who reports to someone else. Not whoever is available that week. Thomas leads your DAT work directly. PAT and QR reinforcement is built in where it matters. That's the structure - and it doesn't change based on what program you choose.

You get Thomas directly - not a coordinator, not an assistant, not a junior tutor. He built this program after scoring 510 AA (99th percentile) and identifying precisely what separates students who plateau from students who break through. If you've put in the time and the score isn't there, that gap has a specific cause. Finding it and closing it is exactly what his sessions are built to do.

PAT and QR are the two sections where most students leave the most points - and where drilling without the right methodology produces the least movement. If those sections are a gap for you, the Full System program includes dedicated weekly reinforcement sessions already built in. Sarah scored 580 QR (98th percentile) and 490 PAT. Her sessions are structured around the exact frameworks that move those numbers.

Common Questions

What students ask
before they start.

Why is the rate lower for longer programs?
+
It's a genuine reward for committing to the full journey - not a marketing trick. A 2-week sprint is focused and short. A 12-week program requires curriculum design, ongoing error tracking, week-over-week pattern analysis, and the kind of cumulative momentum that actually changes how you approach the exam. That level of investment from Thomas earns you a meaningfully better rate. The 12-week program works out to $95/hr - compared to $150 standalone. Across 30 hours, that difference is real.
My test date doesn't fall on a clean number of weeks. Is that okay?
+
Completely fine. If you're 7, 9, or 11 weeks out, Thomas builds the program around your actual test date - same session structure, curriculum shaped to what you need most given the time you have. Just mention your date on the strategy call and he'll map it out before anything is confirmed.
How do installment payments work?
+
Any program of 4 weeks or longer can be split into 2 or 3 equal payments. Your first payment is due at enrollment - the rest are spread through the program at natural checkpoints. No interest, no fees, no catch. Thomas walks you through the exact schedule on the strategy call so you know what to expect before you agree to anything.
What's included in the Full System program versus Core?
+
The Core Program is two 75-minute sessions per week with Thomas - every section, strategy, and error analysis. The Full System adds a built-in weekly reinforcement session focused on PAT and QR methodology. If PAT or QR is a gap in your current scores, or you're targeting a high percentile in either section, those sessions accelerate progress in a way that additional general sessions don't. Most students choose the Full System. If you're already competitive in both sections and primarily need sciences and strategy, the Core Program covers everything you need.
What if I just want one session to start?
+
That's a reasonable place to start. A single session with Thomas is useful for a full diagnostic, targeted work on a section that's stalling you, or just seeing whether the approach feels right before committing to a full program. If you book more sessions, the rate drops as you add them. And if you move into a program, you'll already know what to expect. No pressure to do more than you're ready for.
