ISEE

The Independent School Entrance Exam is the gateway to almost every private school and magnet school in the U.S. With three different test levels for different student ages, the ISEE assesses students’ mastery of grade-level-appropriate material. More importantly, it gives school admissions officers understanding of a child’s reasoning, critical thinking, and problem-solving abilities. An experienced ISEE tutor can be priceless in their ability to help students prepare for these important tests.  

The ISEE Is a Five-Part Test Consisting of:

• Verbal Reasoning
• Quantitative Reasoning
• Reading Comprehension
• Mathematics Achievement
• 30-Minute Essay

How an ISEE Tutor Can Help
Because the ISEE is such a broad and general test of student ability, cramming rarely works. Students will achieve the best results if they can work with an ISEE tutor for several months (or even a whole school year), and take several practice tests, before they sit down for the official test.
