150 – Perfect SAT Score, $20M Company and a Shark Tank Deal with Shaan Patel

Shaan Patel closed a deal on Shark Tank with billionaire Mark Cuban for an investment in his company Prep Expert. Prep Expert offers SAT & ACT courses based on Shaan’s methods to raise his own SAT score from average to perfect (a feat achieved by only 0.02% of all high school students. His life completely changed because of this, he was admitted into prestigious universities, received $250,000 in scholarships and even met the President).

Shaan received a B.A. in Biology from the University of Southern California on a full tuition scholarship, an M.D. from the University of Southern California, and an M.B.A. from Yale University. He is currently a dermatology resident physician at Temple University and continues to act as the President of Prep Expert.
