Due to popular demand by test-taking families, we have created an ISEE Prep Guide as a companion to our Test Innovators platform. Use the Prep Guide along with our full-length practice tests and diagnostics, and you’ll be well on your way to test success!
The ISEE Prep Guide provides families with all of the information they need to navigate the ISEE testing portion of their school application. This book pulls information and insights from Test Innovators’ work with over 100,000 families to help you better understand the ISEE, how schools use it in the application process, and how you can approach the test effectively.
We at Test Innovators believe that with the right tools, a personalized learning path, plenty of practice, and support throughout the process, every student can reach their fullest potential and find the test preparation process fulfilling rather than stressful.
This guide was written by Brenna O’Neill, Director of Education at Test Innovators, using her years of experience working with educators and students as they prepare for this rigorous exam. Test Innovators provides additional resources for the ISEE, including practice tests, question banks, and strategy videos, at ISEEPracticeTest.com
