What does The Oxbridge Formula provide to help you with CSAT?
Timeline of CSAT Preparation Courses offered throughout the year
The Oxbridge Formula has designed a series of courses based on material recommended for CSAT preparation by Cambridge University.
What makes our CSAT Courses unique?
As opposed to just reading a CSAT solution, watching a tutor go through a solution step by step and discuss their intuition and how they knew what to do can be extremely beneficial, especially for a paper like CSAT where there are so few past resources available.
At The Oxbridge Formula, our online resources include videos which cover techniques for answering all of the sample paper questions and our in-person courses will allow you to broaden your problem solving experience so that you aren’t fazed when you come across an unfamiliar problem.
