David.

David revealed his method for getting the score in an interview.

He claims that he started studying for the SAT two years ago and decided to do his own research and study.

David said …

“All my preparation for this was done entirely online, using only free digital resources. I woke up at 4 to write practice tests. And it’s more of a test on the strategy that you choose to use as opposed to a test on pure intelligence,

So, I decided to isolate different methods and strategies for different question types in order to maximise my score. My biggest mentor currently would be my dad.

I plan on studying Mechanical Engineering when I get to the university. What I hope people take away from this is that you don’t need much to succeed. Everything you need to learn is available online and it’s free to anyone with a phone and internet connection.”

Stephen Akiogbe, his father, also disclosed that David did the application on his own.

He said …

“The interesting part of it all is that he started nursing the dream two years ago. He researched, studied on his own, applied on his own, he told me and I asked him to go ahead with it. I came in a s his Dad at the point of payment and submission of the application to double check his application. He studied hard by himself with no tutor and made 15/1600.”

Also, one of the best universities in the world, Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), has verified David’s outstanding SAT scores.
