It is recommended to start preparing for the SSAT one year in advance. The difficulty in the early stage of preparation lies in vocabulary, so students need to start memorizing words in advance, understand words, and then master the use of words through reading and writing. All of these can be achieved through Kate Education's basic class. The next stage is to enter the SSAT intensive class, learn the test points, difficulties, and question points through SSAT real questions, and improve test skills in a targeted manner. Finally, if you want to consolidate your knowledge or achieve a leap in grades under the supervision of a teacher before the exam, you can enter the sprint class and take 1-2 exams in October and November.

The SSAT percentage is actually the position of the student compared with other candidates of the same age and gender in the world in the past three years. The higher the percentage, the more outstanding he/she is (1%-99%). Upper level candidates must score at least 2200 points, and the percentile of each subject must be above 85% to apply for the top private schools in Toronto. The corresponding Middle level scores need to be 1950+, and each subject must be above 85%. This is the key to each private high school to admit a student.

Many private schools in Toronto accept applications from international students, but the University of Toronto School only accepts students with citizenship or permanent residency. Most of the top private schools require applicants in grade 9 and above to take the SSAT test. Only Appleby School does not require this score for local students whose native language is English and who complete the application before October 31 each year. Therefore, if you want to study in a private middle school in Toronto, you must take the SSAT exam, and only if you pass the exam successfully can you enter a famous private middle school and take a solid first step to enter a famous American university in the future. ​There are about 300 private middle schools in the world that require students who apply for admission to have SSAT scores, and more than 300 schools will give priority to applicants who provide SSAT scores. For international students, SSAT scores are more important, especially if you apply for boarding. The school will judge the English level of the applicant based on the SSAT scores of the applicant. You can check the SSAT score requirements of the top 10 private schools in Toronto on the "Toronto Kate Education" public account article. In addition, studying SSAT can help students adapt to the North American education and examination system early. It can help students improve their English level, adapt to the education and examination mode, and lay a solid foundation for obtaining high SAT scores and entering top American universities in the future.

Since 2010, when applying for the SSAT, students are given the option to have their scores sent to schools. Parents should be aware that schools will see how many SSATs you took during the year and can easily see the weighted scores and percentages for each. If you took the test multiple times during the current testing year (August-July of the following year), your official score report will indicate that you took multiple tests. If the receiving school wishes, they can verify your scores for other tests during the year. The other official score reports (including essays) are not sent to the school, but the schools can view the weighted scores and percentages for horizontal comparison or "verification". Many schools will indicate that they are most interested in the student's highest score from multiple tests, and they assume that if an applicant takes multiple tests but only sends one score report to the school, then this score is the applicant's highest score. Scores from multiple tests are not combined or averaged, and each student's SSAT score is independent and complete. Tests not taken are not reported to the school.

In the SSAT exam, although writing is not scored, there are three points that parents and candidates must pay attention to: 1. Each candidate's writing paper will be sent directly to the designated private school, allowing the private school teacher to evaluate the writing level. 2. Writing level is very important in the eyes of admissions officers, and almost all private schools still arrange writing tests when interviewing applicants on campus. 3. When the applicant formally submits the application materials, if the writing level in the application document is inconsistent with the writing content of the applicant in the private school, it will cause a credibility crisis. After clarifying the importance of the writing part, let's see how many words should be written in this essay? The SSAT writing test requires candidates to write a narrative or argumentative essay within 25 minutes, but there is no official word count requirement. If the number of words is too small, it seems to be empty, and if the number of words is too large, it is easy to make mistakes. What should we do? Although there is no official answer, from the perspective of article structure and language expression, Teacher Kate recommends that everyone control the number of words to 300-400. If the score is less than 300, the details of the narrative essay are likely to be empty and the plot development lacks preparation; the argumentative essay is reflected in the lack of persuasive arguments or the lack of logical coherence between sentences. In terms of structure, Kate recommends that candidates write 3 paragraphs (narrative) and 5 paragraphs (argumentative essay). Practice regularly to form your own style and writing habits, so that you can complete the conception and creation within the limited 25 minutes. Students should develop the habit of writing one article every day, which can not only practice academic writing and record life insights, but also help you to conceive quickly and logically coherently during the exam.

In light of the pandemic, SSAT has made three test formats: (1) traditional paper-based test; (2) computer-based test at an authorized test center; (3) real-time computer-based test at home. Students can only take a maximum of two paper-based tests and five computer-based tests at home in a school year. Recommended students can register for one paper-based test and one computer-based test at home.

If you have to give a numerical value, it is about 12,000. However, SSAT is not an exam that relies on "quantity" to win, because it is not an exam for memorizing dictionaries. The vocabulary part of SSAT still requires candidates to "thoroughly understand" the meaning and usage of words, and other more advanced usage methods. Therefore, memorizing words alone will not achieve the desired effect.

The most difficult part: reading. The reading test is not about reading stories, plots, or knowledge. It is more about understanding the reading framework and structure, and the logic of the text. Therefore, if you only look at the surface, it will be superficial. The most easily overlooked part: vocabulary. This part is just like the previous question. You can't conquer this project just by "quantity". You need a deeper understanding and application in the original text.

The preparation period varies from person to person, and there are generally two styles: some students like to take SAT basic classes in grades 8 and 9 to understand the test and improve their scores, but they are not in a hurry to take the test, but wait until grade 10/11 to take the test; other students like to take the test immediately after taking the basic class followed by the intensive class. Which way is better? Teacher Kate has the following suggestions: - The prerequisite for taking the SAT test or intensive class is to complete the 11th grade math content (this requires students to reach ahead in school or learn in advance outside of school). - Students with ability are best to get at least SAT 1450+ in December of grade 10 or grade 11 at the latest. This score can be used to apply for the credit-bearing summer school of the American dream school.

This is a question that almost all parents will ask, and many people have a myth that it is only necessary to take 2-3 times at most, otherwise it will affect the impression of college applications. In fact, we recommend taking the test 2-3 times, because it is possible that students may be nervous for the first time because they are inexperienced, which is understandable, but you don’t need to take the SAT too many times, because this test does not increase the scores the more you take it. However, if you have to take the test multiple times, it will not affect the impression of college applications, because students can "Score Choice", which means they can choose the test score that they are more satisfied with and submit it to the university.

People tend to think that SAT scores are valid for two years, but neither the College Board nor American universities have ever explicitly stated that only scores obtained within two years are valid. Generally speaking, when students register an account on the College Board and take the exam, the scores will be retained in the system for five years, and they can be queried and submitted within five years.

According to the official practice of the College Board, the SAT test scores can usually be checked about 20 days after the test. Candidates can log on to the CB official website to check.

No, when submitting application materials, the system will ask applicants to choose one of the standardized tests to submit. Applicants only need to submit the best SAT score they have ever obtained. Admissions officers will not be able to see other scores that have not been submitted.
