State test practice,
grades 3 to 8.
The annual New York State assessments in ELA and Mathematics, and the earliest honest read a family can get on where a child stands, years before an admissions exam matters.
Why we care about the early grades.
A sixth grader practicing the state tests is years ahead by the time the SHSAT or TACHS matters. Starting early is the single biggest advantage a student can have, and it costs nothing but time.
- ELA and Mathematics, in each of grades 3 through 8, twelve separate question banks
- Sat each spring, administered by the New York State Education Department
- Not admissions exams: these measure grade-level standards, not selection
- Useful as an early, low-stakes check on where a child actually stands
- The same student record carries forward to the admissions exams later
Exam details are summarized from publicly available information from the organization that administers it. Confirm current requirements with your school or the testing organization before registering.
