As you know, entrance into Bergen Academies is based in large part on your exam results in addition to an interview. It is a competitive process and the admissions rate is below 20%. It is a simple fact that most students will not gain entrance.

That said, we enjoy a success rate far above the average and offer you the opportunity to practice with real BCA exams. By comparison, the SHSAT exam for NYC specialized high schools has similar overall acceptance rates around 20% and admissions is determined exclusively by exam score.  The success rate of some of the best, high priced tutoring courses ranges between 41% and 46%.

Over 70% of students who completed our full course achieved scores exceeding the admissions cut-off. That’s right! More of our students who spent about $50 and put in the effort performed above the students next to them that spent $2,000 and upward for tutoring and several times better than the overall test pool. We see no reason why our success rates for Bergen Academies would be any less.

Although the website is designed to work on most any device including tablets and smart phones, it is best you study and take tests at a desk using a PC or laptop with ample screen size and high bandwidth access to the internet. Like any test or study course you will want to take notes and be comfortable and focused while working.
