​NYC PRIVATE, SPECIALIZED AND BOARDING SCHOOLS: IMPROVE THE CHANCE OF BEING ACCEPTED

Some of the top primary and secondary private schools get thousands of applicants per grade, with limited open placements. Improving your child’s ERB, ISEE, SSAT or SHSAT score will situate them above the average applicant, making them more likely to be accepted into a private school or a specialized public school.

​Since 2005, The Study Shack’s tutoring services have helped students get accepted into NYC’s top  schools.
