We can help alleviate some of the pressure of and confusion about getting into college, from SAT prep to admissions counseling and coaching. History Established in 1998. We started as a one-man shop in 1998 coaching adult students applying to graduate school (mostly MBA programs). A lot of parents came by asking us to teach their kids, and now a couple of decades later, we offer pretty much anything academic to help San Francisco middle-school and high-school students. Meet the Manager Erin B. Manager I founded TestMagic in 1998 as an independent, boutique learning center because I wanted to create something wonderful. Now many years later, I am so proud of the thousands of young, vibrant minds I have had the distinct pleasure of working with.
