Get Ready for the SSAT

What is the SSAT?
The Secondary School Admission Test (SSAT) is a multiple-choice aptitude test for students in grades 5-11.


The test consists of verbal, quantitative (math) and reading comprehension sections.


The verbal questions test your vocabulary, verbal reasoning, and ability to relate ideas logically. The quantitative (math) questions test your ability to solve problems involving arithmetic, elementary algebra and geometry and concepts. The reading comprehension section tests your ability to understand what you read. All tests are printed in English.


In addition, the test includes a writing sample portion, which asks you to respond to a topic statement. Your essay is not graded, but a copy accompanies each SSAT score report you have sent to a school or consultant.

The SSAT is designed for students in grades 5 through 11 and is administered on two levels:
· Lower (for students currently in grades 5-7)
· Upper (for students currently in grades 8-11)
