Worth it. My son was taking the CogAT Level 5/6 for school and with help from the practice tests, he scored well and was able to get into the county's gifted program. Thank you so much.

We purchased the NYC G&T pack. We are extremely happy to have purchased the product. It was totally clear and simple and my son felt prepared because we used your pack to prepare. We are very, very happy!

With one week of my son using the OLSAT/NNAT, his scores improved drastically. My son received the training and confidence he needed to succeed and he was accepted onto the program!

I'm happy to report that my 3rd grade niece took her SCAT test and passed the quantitative math portion with flying colors - 44 of 50 correct! Your test preps were a huge help. Please give my thanks to everyone there who supported us through the process.

About the SSAT

The SSAT (Secondary School Admission Test) is used by many independent schools all over the world for admission purposes. By assessing verbal, reading, writing and mathematical skills, the SSAT is able to supply valuable information to independent schools. Proper preparation can significantly increase your child’s overall score, and the number of independent schools he or she can apply for.

SSAT Questions by Test Sections

SSAT Quantitative

The mathematical concepts assessed in the SSAT Quantitative section vary among the different levels. Students in grades 3 and 4 (Elementary Level) are tested on a variety of skills based on each level’s respective grade. The SSAT Middle and Upper Levels assess the student’s knowledge of algebra and geometry, as well as other mathematical processes.

SSAT Verbal

The SSAT Verbal section is divided into two parts: vocabulary (synonyms) and analogies. Students’ knowledge of the correct use of vocabulary, as well as their abilities to infer answers from texts are evaluated.

SSAT Reading Comprehension

The SSAT Reading Comprehension section assesses the ability of a student to understand what s/he has read. Each passage is followed by questions regarding the passage’s content, style, point of view, etc. The passages in the Reading Comprehension section of the SSAT utilize both narrative content as well as argumentative content.
