Since Sean is long gone, I have decided to remove my review of him.
Despite my initial feelings towards Elite, I found Elite to be a SAT preparation class worth going to in the summer. Not only did I see my score go up by 200 points (from my diagnostics test to the highest practice score I got), but I learned a lot of stuff that I would otherwise not know about.
The teachers are friendly and for the most part, know what they are talking about. All the teachers are willing to help you achieve your goal, which I appreciate. My favorite teachers were probably Krasnor and Martin/Chang.
I also gained a lot of friends from Elite, which helped me get through the worst of it.
As long as you're willing to work your way through Elite and not give up, Elite will be a breeze.
