Still haven’t registered for the ISEE? Check out our list of ISEE test dates around the country.
Once you know when and where you would like to take the test, you can head to the official testing body’s website, www.iseetest.org, to register. Make sure that you don’t wait too long to sign up for a test date; many testing sites fill up very quickly.
If you find that all of your preferred testing sites have already filled up, consider signing up to take the test at a Prometric online testing center. Dates and times are much more flexible, though it may not be the same kind of test day experience that you’re used to. If you end up signing up for a Prometric test, it’s a good idea to prepare by taking at least one full-length online ISEE practice test. If you have questions about how to prepare, don’t hesitate to reach out to us (our contact info is in the footer)!
