United States History
ISEE/SSAT
Both the ISEE and the SSAT are used for admission to private middle and high schools and test Vocabulary, Math, and Reading Comprehension. Many schools accept either test for admission, allowing students to choose the one that best aligns with their strengths.
ELPAC
The ELPAC is a test designed to assess how well students in kindergarten through grade twelve understand English when it is not their primary language.
SAT/ACT (COMING SOON)
The SAT and ACT are standardized exams utilized for college admissions and merit-based scholarship awards. While both tests cover similar topics, most colleges do not show a preference for one over the other, and neither is inherently more difficult. Students often perform better on one test than the other, depending on their strengths and test-taking styles.
SCAT
Developed by Johns Hopkins Center for Talented Youth (CTY), the Online School and College Ability Test (SCAT) provides a fast and straightforward way to assess eligibility for CTY programs. Students can take the test from home, within one hour after registration. CTY uses a three-level grading scale, designed by experts in gifted education, to compare your child's score with that of students in higher grade levels.
The test is divided into two sections: Verbal and Quantitative, each containing 50 multiple-choice questions plus five experimental ones that don't count toward the final score. Each section lasts 22 minutes, with an optional 10-minute break in between. The verbal section focuses on analogies, while the quantitative section measures mathematical reasoning through comparisons between two quantities, often without requiring actual calculations.
Students are tested at different levels depending on their grade:
-
Elementary (grades 2–3),
-
Intermediate (grades 4–5),
-
Advanced (grades 6 and up).
There is no penalty for guessing, and the test is administered on a computer, often taking less than an hour to complete. Scores are presented as scaled scores, with ranges that vary depending on the test level, typically from 400 to 514. These scores help determine eligibility for CTY programs.
