Tutorstack Launches This Week at the National Test Prep Association Conference in Chicago
This week marks a milestone that MJTP has been building toward for a long time. Tutorstack is officially launching at the National Test Prep Association annual conference in Chicago, and I couldn't be more excited to share it with the MJTP family. If it weren't for the amazing families and hardworking students that I have the honor of serving, the opportunity to share MJTP's content and strategies with more tutors and students wouldn't be a possibility.
The NTPA conference brings together the people who do this work on an elite level — independent tutors, college admissions specialists, test prep professionals, and educators who have one goal in mind: to help families achieve or exceed their college and career readiness goals. It's the perfect event to introduce something built for exactly those people and the families they will serve.
What Is Tutorstack?
Tutorstack is the most modern, intelligent, and effective platform built for test prep professionals who want to deliver more for their students without reinventing the wheel every cycle. When I set out to build Tutorstack, I had in mind a few things:
- The most effective content and pedagogy delivery to boost scores and exceed testing outcomes, based on real results
- A beautiful platform that students, parents, and tutors will actually enjoy using (We all know that SAT prep can be a boring, not-so-glamorous endeavor, so why not give it a glow-up?)
Tutorstack will give tutors full access to The Gauntlet content to use with their students. To date, we have 150 of the hardest SAT verbal questions, 150 of the hardest SAT math questions, and the hardest SAT mock test in existence. Our motto has always been, "harder questions, higher scores."

But harder questions for the sake of being hard doesn't get results. That's why we're working on a pedagogy system that now includes over 2000 questions of varying difficulty and progression system that scaffolds success. New PSAT tests, section tests, and a flashcard system for the most frequently recycled official SAT vocabulary words—all based on the MJTP official vocabulary research that we update after every test administration.
In a nutshell, Tutorstack and The Gauntlet are now the gold standard for the most effective, up-to-date SAT content. We have harder, more relevant content than the official SAT material available at the College Board, and no other prep platform is pouring into this like we are.
While everyone else is aimed at selling you empty promises, we are delivering on those promises with affordable test prep of the highest quality.
The Gauntlet Keeps Growing
Alongside the Tutorstack launch, The Gauntlet continues to expand. We're now up to about 7 full practice tests, 10 subject-specific section tests, and over 2,000 human-written drill questions on the platform.
That word — human-written — matters. Every drill on The Gauntlet is written by experienced, credentialed instructors and published SAT writers, not generated by an intern using AI. Students get questions that reflect how the SAT actually tests reasoning, written by people who take the exam themselves.
Catch the Launch on the Podcast
I sat down with Mike Bergin and Amy Seeley last week to talk through the launch. The full episode covers how testing timelines should align with college admissions plans and a sponsor spotlight on The Gauntlet. Give it a listen:

New This Week: The SAT Vocabulary Challenge Book
Also launching this week on Amazon is the new Gauntlet SAT Vocabulary Challenge book. Like everything in The Gauntlet and the MJTP Official SAT Vocabulary Quizzes, it's built on the same principle: expert-written content that helps students learn the words the SAT actually rewards. It joins the 2026 Gauntlet Ultimate SAT Math Challenge and the 2026 Gauntlet Ultimate SAT Math Challenge as part of a growing library designed to give students structured, daily practice they can hold in their hands. Look for it on Amazon this week.
SAT Scores Drop This Friday
One more thing to keep on your radar: SAT scores from the most recent administration release this Friday. Scores tell us where to aim next, and the students who keep practicing through the summer are the ones who see the biggest jumps in the fall.
If you want to put that into action, The Gauntlet is ready with more drills than ever.
Oh, and if you're in the Chicago area this week, reach out! Ashley and I enjoyed watching the White Sox and Dodgers yesterday. We'll attend the Cubs and Rockies on Tuesday after the conference. Can't wait for our first Wrigley Field experience!
