The SSAT is a very competitive test, and having a preparation plan is key to achieving the best scores that you are capable of. Here’s our favorite strategy:
1. Start by taking a full-length practice test in one sitting.
2. View your results to see your strengths and weaknesses.
3. Review questions and master concepts you missed with additional practice questions.
