Exams
HSPT, ISEE, SSAT
Format
Small group or one-on-one
Timing
Built around application deadlines
Focused preparation for the High School Placement Test and the Independent School Entrance Exam, along with the SSAT. These exams are not the SAT in miniature — the format, the timing, and the vocabulary demands differ, and preparation that ignores that wastes a family's time.
What we cover
- The verbal, quantitative, reading, and mathematics sections
- Question formats specific to each exam
- Timing and pacing under exam conditions
- Vocabulary work, which carries more weight here than on the SAT
- Practice exams with a breakdown of the results
Start early
Private school applications close well before the school year does. Families who begin a few months ahead have room to sit a practice exam, work on what it exposes, and test again. Call us with your target schools and their deadlines and we will tell you what is realistic.
