Test Innovators’ education team is excited to announce the release of our new 2018 ISEE and SSAT practice tests!
We at Test Innovators are committed to providing the most accurate ISEE and SSAT preparation materials available. To this end, we update our tests throughout the year to ensure their accuracy based on feedback about the official tests. In addition, every year we release entirely new, updated practice tests. Students taking these tests will encounter new content in the form of new passages, new vocabulary, new sentence completions and analogies, and new math questions.
In addition to this brand new content, we re-balance our existing test content based on extensive data from the past year, which ensures that each test is of the same difficulty. These updates are designed to create practice tests that match the difficulty, content, and style of the official tests so that students will go into test day confident and prepared to succeed. Log into your existing account to check out our new tests now at ISEEpracticetest.com and SSATpracticetest.com.
As a general rule, we recommend starting your ISEE prep six to four months before your test date.
This means that if you plan to take the test in November, then you should take a diagnostic practice test sometime between May and July.
The Quantitative Reasoning section of the ISEE tests mathematical reasoning abilities, which means that the questions often don’t require significant calculation and instead can be solved with numerical and logical reasoning.

The SSAT at Home is the same test as the traditional SSAT— the only difference is that the test is administered on the computer rather than on paper. However, because the experience of taking a test at home on the computer is different from taking a test in person...

You may know about the content differences between the ISEE and the SSAT from our previous post here. But there are also big geographic differences. Schools in Georgia, for example, never use the ISEE for admission, while schools in Texas never ask for SSAT scores.
The Middle Level SSAT and the Upper Level SSAT take a total of 3 hours and 5 minutes, including two breaks between sections and the experimental section at the end.
