Seattle SSAT Tutoring FAQ
The SSAT, or Secondary School Admissions Test, is a test that generates a standardized measurement of academic ability for private school admissions. Students in elementary, middle, and high school can take the SSAT, and it is composed of four distinct sections. Those are quantitative; reading comprehension; verbal reasoning; and an essay, which is not scored but is sent to schools so that they can gauge students' writing abilities. As with any standardized test, preparing for the SSAT can be stressful and sometimes challenging. One great way to get some extra help with the test is through working with a private tutor.
