Mock SAT Test controversy

In fall 2008, questions were raised by students at Lowell High School (San Francisco) over the mock tests used by Revolution Prep. Claims were made that the difficulty of the first test was too high, resulting in artificial score increases. In May 2009, the story was covered by the Wall Street Journal. Revolution Prep disputed the claims, stating in the article that the results were "outliers."
