OLSAT Grade 1 Test Format

The OLSAT Grade 1 Test has 60 questions (30 verbal and 30 nonverbal). Students are provided with 77 minutes to complete the OLSAT Test.

Most commonly, the OLSAT Level B for first-graders is administered to children one-on-one. Since at the age of six and seven children are still developing their reading and writing skills, OLSAT Test administrators will read the directions, examples and test questions aloud to students. The content of the OLSAT Level B will be read aloud only once, therefore, it is important that your child be familiar with OLSAT Level B test questions.

While practicing, the instructions of each question should be read aloud (once) to the child, as is done on the actual OLSAT Test. For your convenience, TestPrep-Online currently provides audio instructions for the following question types: Following Directions, Aural Reasoning, Arithmetic Reasoning.

Tips for Strengthening OLSAT Scores

  • Make sure your child understands the importance of the test. While your child should not be stressed, he or she should realize that this test is important and be encouraged to do his or her best in order to have motivation to succeed.
  • Find out everything you can about the test. Knowledge is power. Make sure to discuss the subject with your child's teachers and read our FAQ page.
  • Healthy eating habits are a key to success. According to recent studies, children tend to do better on tests and at school in general after a healthy breakfast. It is also recommended to have a good meal before starting to practice for the test. Make sure not to include sweets in the meal, but rather vegetables, legumes, and complex carbohydrates.
  • Figure out your child's strengths and weaknesses. It is very important that your child puts a higher focus on those subjects he or she is having difficulties with. However, it is also important not to skip any type of question and make sure to practice all of them, even if some types are easier.
  • Explanations, explanations, explanations. Even if your child answers a question correctly, do not skip ahead to the next question but read the explanation, too. Your child needs to be familiar with the theory and details of each question. Remember our prep pack offers a thorough explanation for each and every question.
