Hey y’all. It’s Karl Francel here. I’m so glad you’re here on our site and I’d love to open up about why I’ve committed my life to making this option available to you!
I made this company to be the solution I wished I had when I was in high school, but never did. I’ve been refining the winning formula from my own story for more than 15 years now, helping tens of thousands of students across the world realize their higher education dreams, earning scholarships and admissions that have changed their lives forever.
Back in high school, I never would have guessed the end of my story would be what it has become. As a sophomore, I had just gotten back my first ACT score and I was ecstatic. I had gotten a 29 with no prep and thought a perfect score was nearly inevitable by the time I graduated. I took the test again without prep as junior and uh-oh, another 29. It was time to get serious so I started asking around about preparing for the test and was recommended the best prep available in the area. Unfortunately, the whole experience felt like a hoax. Tricks and gimmicks were not what I was hoping to find in test prep. And I certainly didn’t expect to know more than the people teaching the prep but most people looked at a 29 and wondered why I was even retaking it. And so, after taking the best prep available, I got another 29.
I needed to do something different. I began working endlessly at my standardized tests and began developing my own strategies to beat them. I became so single-minded in this pursuit, believing there had to be a more reliable way to raise a score. And I found it! I ended up creating my own system that actually worked: raising my overall score 7 points to a perfect 36 with a perfect 36 in English, 36 in Math, 36 in Reading, and 36 in Science.
I was admitted to my top choice schools, Stanford and Harvard, and was given a full ride to Stanford. A huge part of this success was from my test scores, but I developed strategies for applying to school and for scholarships that I’ve helped others repeat as well.
Some people were shocked I spent as much time on the process as I did, but it’s safe to say it was worth it. It was some of the highest ROI time I’ve spent in my entire life.
And here’s where you come in. I’m not sure if your child has felt the frustration that I felt, but I remember how difficult the process was. I’m here to help them and I know that I can.
The process I created for myself is incredibly repeatable. I know that you can repeat it and that you can do it in a fraction of the time it took me. I’ve been building my company on this success and I want you to be part of it. It’s exactly what I would recommend to my family, my friends, anyone I love. In fact, I sold the program to my parents to help my adopted younger brother, helping him raise his score from a 19 to a 32.
But this isn’t just a secret for my own family. It’s for you too.
This is why Olympia Prep was created. I want to be the one who cares about your test score even more than you do. Our whole team wants to be the ones who unlock potential you didn’t know you had. Olympia Prep students have gone from 19 to 32 … from 23 to 33 … from 29 to 36. It doesn’t matter how high your score is right now, I can help you. I promise you, this is the test prep you’ve been looking for.
So who are we today?
After years of helping thousands of students reach their goal scores, our team was happy but ready for a new challenge. We have pooled our collective brainpower and created new programs to answer questions we heard all too often from our clients:
Can you help us get into our dream school now that we have our goal test score?
What can I do to help my student who struggles with time management and study skills?
Once we get this ACT/SAT score, how do we find and secure as much scholarship money as possible?
What if my student is struggling with subjects in high school and/or college but I don’t know how to help them?
And so now, Olympia Prep has become the only resource you need to maximize your entire higher education journey. Our entire program is called our College Concierge service, which will help your student beat the tests, build critical life skills many high school students are missing, find and secure scholarships, gain admissions, and get quality coaching and mentorship throughout their entire high school and collegiate journey.
We exist to solve these problems for you. Our All-Inclusive Olympia Prep programs can answer all of these questions and more. With a clear and affordable pay-as-you-go Membership structure. Welcome to the new Olympia Prep!
