The G&T programs in NYC maintain rigorous, accelerated, and specialized curricula designed to challenge your child. In order to be admitted into an NYC G&T program, children in Pre-K and kindergarten must take the NYC Gifted and Talented Assessment Level A. This multiple-choice assessment is composed of questions taken from two different tests: verbal questions from the Otis-Lennon School Ability Test (OLSAT), and nonverbal questions from the Naglieri Nonverbal Ability Test (NNAT).
Admission to an NYC gifted and talented program is competitive. In order to earn a spot in one of these coveted programs, students must excel on the NYC G&T Assessment. In recent years, due to increased competition, most citywide programs have only admitted children who score in the 99th percentile. To help your child reach his or her goal, TestPrep-Online offers a line of specific preparation packs designed to familiarize your child both with the testing material, as well as the testing conditions.
The NYC Gifted and Talented Test is made up entirely of multiple choice questions. The test uses verbal questions from the OLSAT-8, and nonverbal questions from the NNAT2. The verbal component consists of 30 OLSAT questions, and the nonverbal component consists of 48 NNAT questions. Children have approximately one hour to complete the exam. Each section is weighed equally, and accounts for half a child's score. For more information on how the test is scored, click here.
Each question on the verbal section of the test is read aloud only once during the test. Because of this, it is important that your child be familiar with the test questions. For your convenience, TestPrep-Online currently provides audio instructions for the following question types: Following Directions, Aural Reasoning, Arithmetic Reasoning.
