“With Rob’s helpful videos, I received an 800 on the SAT Chemistry Subject Test. The clear, concise explanations really helped me understand my mistakes and correct them on the test!"

What You'll Learn

In this course I review every single question of six real SAT Chemistry tests and additional real bonus problems - a total of over 550 real SAT Chemistry problems. While this course is not a substitute for a high school Chemistry class, I use each problem to carefully review the major concepts and ideas you'll need to know to get an 800, including:

  • Structure of Matter: Atomic structure; Molecular structure; Bonding
  • States of Matter: Solids and liquids; Gases and gas laws; Solutions
  • Reaction Types: Acids and bases; Oxidation-Reduction & Combustion; Precipitation
  • Stoichiometry: Mole concept; Chemical equations
  • Equilibrium and Reaction Rates: Equilibrium systems; Rates of reaction
  • Other Topics: Thermochemistry; Descriptive chemistry; Laboratory

We also review strategies and tactics for beating the College Board at their own game, including

  • how to master the three question types: classification sets, multiple choice, and the tricky relationship analysis (True/False) questions.
  • study tips for making the most out of your study time and preparation.
  • when to guess and when to omit.
  • anticipating and learning the "factoids" that the College Board loves to test with help of the SAT Chemistry Factoid Sheet.
  • and so much more!

“My experience with Reason Prep was crucial in developing the skills needed to perform well on my SAT exams. Rob was always there whenever I needed remediation for my weakness or if I was bothered by a minor question. He’s helped me improve my Chemistry subject test by 170 points and my Math + Critical Reading scores over 130 points just in the course of 3 months. I can’t say enough about the efficiency and productivity that Rob always brought to every session he held with me. The videos were certainly excellent, but knowing Rob as a person through a one on one tutoring program has led me to see the passion that he displays for assisting students in the college admissions process. Thank you for your help Rob!"

Frequently Asked Questions


I have never taken chemistry. Will this course help?
This course assumes that you have taken at least one year of high school chemistry. (Honors or AP level is even better.) While I do work through all the major concepts that will appear on the Subject Test, a basic level of background knowledge is required.
Do you offer any discounts or scholarships?
Yes! You can learn more about Reason Prep's scholarship program by clicking here.
How long is this course?
The course comprises 14+ hours of video content in over 300+ videos. If you work for an hour per day, you should be able to complete this course in about two to three weeks.
How many points will I increase if I use your course?
This is an impossible question to answer without more info about your current score level and experience. Feel free to contact me for individual answers to this question. You can also check out my testimonials page for a sample of student feedback about my courses: Testimonials
