Private School Admissions Test Prep
The Admission Assessment for Beginning Learners (AABL) is administered by the Educational Records Bureau (ERB) and is given on an ipad. It is a test for early learners to enter PreK, Kindergarten and 1st grade. It assesses verbal and quantitative reasoning, early literacy, and mathematics.
The Independent School Entrance Exam (ISEE) is administered by the Educational Records Bureau (ERB), and is recommended for students applying to private schools in grades 2-12. The Study Shack offers test preparation sessions for the ISEE Primary (entering grades 2 – 4), lower level (entering grades 5-6), middle level (entering grades 7-8), and upper level (entering grades 9-12). At the primary level the ISEE is composed of 3 sections: Reading Comprehension, Mathematics Achievement, and a Writing Sample. For entering grade 2 there is an auditory comprehension section in addition to the other sections. At the lower, middle, and upper levels the ISEE test is composed of five sections: Verbal Reasoning, Quantitative Reasoning, Reading Comprehension, Mathematics Achievement, and an Essay (the essay is unscored and sent to the schools).
The Study Shack’s AABL & ISEE private tutors and test prep specialists will assist your child with a review of academic material for each of the sub-tests given, and improve test-taking strategies and time management skills.
