Academic Study Coaches: Test Prep Recommendation Methodology

What We're Researching

We are running a paid study on professional test prep recommendation methodologies.

Next, you will create a 30-45 minute narrated screen recording from your desktop.

You will submit both the written document and the video file asynchronously for our review.
