Hi. Here are a few general tips that can help: 1. Remember the order of mathematical operations (PEMDAS). 2. Make sure you know how to convert between fractions, decimals, and percentages. 3. Memorize the formulas for calculating the area, perimeter, and volume of shapes (for example: area and perimeter of a circle, the volume of a cube, etc.) - this will save you crucial time during the test. Finally, I recommend practicing as much as you can. You can find a free sample test on this link: www.testprep-online.com/ssat-upper-level Good luck on your test!
@@user-mb1kj8gt8b Last year, I only had two weeks to prep because it was a rushed decision so I wasn't expecting much. I scored in the 47th percentile and now I'm hoping for an above 80 percentile.
i have 2 months before im due to take the test I've been studying on and off but only the verbal sections because I thought my school would teach me what I need to know for math, watching this I now realize I'm screwed
I was in the 96th percentile range too!! I got accepted into my top school so I guess it’s a pretty good score. Although the SSAT score isn’t everything in application process.
sorry im late, but congratulations! im taking my test in a few weeks and am applying for grade 10. can i ask what grade you were when you took the test? just as a comparison from my previous test results. thank you so much, and congratulations again!
Hi I’m Arabia guy I watch your video and it was useful for me and am actually studying the Arabic system and I have no idea about how to study for this exam so before getting a high score in I want to know how to study for it from scratch
Hi. First of all, make sure you are familiar with the basics: vocabulary, basic math operations, reading ability, etc. Here are some general tips: 1) Read a lot before the exam in order to improve your reading comprehension ability. Read books, articles, and every piece of written material. 2) Use flashcards for memorizing difficult words - this can boost your vocabulary significantly. 3) Make sure you rule the basics in math. For example, familiarize yourself with the order of operations (PEMDAS), and make sure you know how to convert between fractions, decimals, and percentages. The next step would be to practice sample questions and simulations of the real SSAT. You can find a free SSAT sample test + complete simulations of the real SSAT on this link: www.testprep-online.com/ssat-upper-level. Wishing you lots of luck on your upcoming exam!
The most important thing is to master the basic math concepts first. Specifically, PEMDAS (order of operations), place value, understanding what an equation is, and basic rules and concepts in geometry (for example, how to calculate the area and perimeter of various shapes). We advise you to make a list of the basic topics you are less good at and then tackle each of them one by one. Only then it is recommended that you move on and practice real SSAT math sample questions. Good luck!
Hi Andy. The verbal section of the SSAT is indeed challenging. The most challenging element in it is the vocabulary, as you are expected to be familiar with many difficult words you do not usually encounter in your daily life. We recommend making lists of words and working with flashcards to make the learning easier. In addition, reading books can also help you a lot. Good luck on your test!
Hello, thank you very much for your explanation, but my question is, as an international student who is not familiar with difficult words, how can I participate in this exam?? Is there any source or book that can help me about the vocabulary of the SSAT exam?thank you🙏🏻
Try to read as much as you can: books, articles, and so on. We also recommend using flashcards for memorization: write down a difficult word you need to remember on one side of the card and its definition on the other side. Then you can test yourself whether you remember the definition of this word - it really helps! Finally, you can practice your vocabulary with our practice pack as it contains 60 synonyms questions: www.testprep-online.com/ssat-upper-level Wishing you the best of luck!

Hi. For general information, please look at the following link under the title "SSAT Testing Options": www.ssat.org/ You can either take the test at a Prometric center or take the paper & pencil version. In order to find a Prometric center nearby your location, try to check here: proscheduler.prometric.com/scheduling/findAvailability (remember to select "SSAT by The Enrollment Management Association" as the Test Sponsor). For example, I have checked now and there are available testing dates in Delhi at the beginning of March (but of course, insert your convenient location). Best of luck!
@@vaaperr i don't have my official results yet, but i think i did good overall on the essay, reading, and math. not so much on the verbal. if you're going to be taking the ssat i recommend studying lots of root words because it will really help you out

Two months is our general recommendation for a slow and in-depth preparation, but you can still ace the test even if you have less time. I suggest building an orderly schedule for the upcoming month and working according to it. Do not give up, you still have a good chance to score high :)
You can skip breaks. But the amount of time to do the section remains the same. USE THE BREAKS I didn’t use one of mine and had a tough time doing the section since I had to pee.
