Like all standardized tests, the SSAT has its quirks. It places an unusually heavy emphasis on vocabulary knowledge, for example. The reading comprehension has its own style. There is also more arithmetic on the SSAT math section than is the norm on standardized tests.
In addition to developing the problem-solving techniques that are the staple of our test-prep tutoring, our SSAT prep coaches also take care to emphasize the specific knowledge and skill sets required for success on the SSAT.
The SSAT prep coaches are also adept at tailoring the prep process to the individual student in order to develop an approach that suits him or her best.
