Episode 1358: Shark Tank Winner & CEO of Prep Expert: Shaan Patel

Derek interviews Shark Tank Winner and CEO of Prep Expert, Shaan Patel.

Shaan grew up in Las Vegas in his parents' budget motel, attended inner-city public schools in
the worst school district in the nation with a 40% dropout rate, and was clueless about
standardized tests. After spending hundreds of hours studying for the SAT, he was able to raise
his score from average to perfect — a feat achieved by only 0.02% of all high school students.
His life completely changed because of his perfect SAT score! He was admitted into prestigious
universities, received $250k dollars in scholarships, and even got to meet the President.
He created Prep Expert to help high school students achieve their own dreams. Prep Expert is
now a leading national test preparation provider. The company offers 6-week SAT & ACT
preparation classes in multiple cities around the country and online. Thousands of Prep Expert
students have improved their SAT and ACT scores, gotten into the Ivy League, won millions in
scholarships, and some have even gotten perfect SAT/ACT scores themselves.

Shaan completed his Bachelor of Arts Degree in Biology (BA) at the University of Southern
California, Master of Business Administration (MBA) at Yale University, and Medical Degree
(MD) at the University of Southern California. He is also a board-certified dermatologist
physician. In addition to his academic endeavors, he continues to act as the Founder &
President of Prep Expert. He appeared on ABC's Shark Tank and closed a deal with Mark
Cuban for an investment in the company.
