While the SSAT is quite similar to the SAT reasoning test, they are quite different.. SSAT is not related to SAT, neither is it organized or administered by the federal College Board. The test is given to high school students in grades five through eleven. <br> <br> There are two levels for the SSAT, the Lower level for students still in grades five to seven and the Upper level designed for students in grades eight to eleven. The test itself is comprised of two parts. The first part is a brief essay part where students are required to write a short essay on a topic provided. The second part is multiple-choice questions in math, verbal, reading and comprehension. There are five test areas under SSAT. <br> <br> The SSAT test is not restricted to a particular State, but is applicable for entry in any private high school in the United States and Canada. Like SAT, and some other entry exams, SSAT has test centers in various parts of the World. The test is conducted only in English.<br> </p> <h2><img src="../graphx/icons/arrow_blue32.jpg" width="32" height="32" hspace="10" align="left">SSAT test preparation</h2> <br> This test has two parts: an essay question, and a multiple-choice math questions. <br> <br> The SSAT is a General Aptitude test which measures your ability to learn, rather than your knowledge. <br> <br> To study for a General Aptitude test you first need to master the material, and to become familiar with the different types of questions you will find on the exam, and how to answer them. <br> <br> <strong><img src="../images/arrow.gif" alt="" width="15" height="17" hspace="8" align="left" />Reading Comprehension.</strong> <a href="reading-comp.html?name=ssat&id=55&fname=Secondary School Admissions test&flashid=143">Tips and strategies for Reading Comprehension. </a><br> <br> <strong><img src="../images/arrow.gif" alt="" width="15" height="17" hspace="8" align="left" />Math Questions.</strong> <a href="math-questions.html?name=ssat&id=55&fname=Secondary School Admissions test&flashid=143">Learn how to answer questions by breaking questions down into smaller pieces. </a><br> <br> <strong><img src="../images/arrow.gif" alt="" width="15" height="17" hspace="8" align="left" /> Multiple Choice Questions. <a href="multiple-choice.html?name=ssat&id=55&fname=Secondary School Admissions test&flashid=143">Tips and tricks >>> </a><br> <br /> <br> </strong> <img src="../graphx/icons/arrow_blue32.jpg" width="32" height="32" hspace="10" align="left"><strong>Secondary School Admissions Test (SSAT) Practice Test Questions </strong><br /> <br /> <br /> <a href="readingcomppractice.html?name=ssat&id=55&fname=Secondary School Admissions test&flashid=143">Practice Reading Comprehension Questions </a>- (includes Main Idea and Making Inferences)<br /> <a href="math-questions.html?name=ssat&id=55&fname=Secondary School Admissions test&flashid=143">Practice Math Questions</a> (General)<br /> <a href="BasicMath.html?name=ssat&id=55&fname=Secondary School Admissions test&flashid=143">Basic Math</a> (Very Basic - Long & Short Division, Multiplication, Decimals, Fractions, Percent etc.)<br /> <a href="BasicMath2.html?name=ssat&id=55&fname=Secondary School Admissions test&flashid=143">Basic Math II </a>(Percentage, Fractions Decimals exponents, simple algebra, parentheses removal etc.)<br /> <a href="algebra.html?name=ssat&id=55&fname=Secondary School Admissions test&flashid=143">Basic Algebra</a> (Word Problems using basic algebra) <br /> <a href="exponents.html?name=ssat&id=55&fname=Secondary School Admissions test&flashid=143">Exponents</a> (Adding, subtracting and multiplying exponents and exponent fractions) <br /> <br /> <br /> <h2> <img src="../graphx/icons/arrow_blue32.jpg" alt="" width="32" height="32" hspace="10" align="left" />Everything you Need to Pass the Secondary School Admissions Test (SSAT)</h2> <br> <h2><a href="http://test-preparation.ca/cgi-bin/i8gws/7dfmn.cgi?l=55" rel="nofollow"><img src="../images/covers/ssat_cover.gif" width="210" height="266" hspace="10" border="0" align="left"></a>SSAT Study Guide</h2></strong> <p>Complete study guide prepared by a dedicated team of expert researchers.</p> <p>You receive the benefit of our hard work!
