PREP PLUS vs CONDENSED PREP

PREPSKILLS® SSAT Prep Plus Program is the one chosen most often by families to provide the best competitive edge. The Plus Program offers the most comprehensive SSAT preparation possible. It bridges the gap between content learned at school and the test-taking strategies and skills required to maximize the scoring potential of every student we work with. This course is best suited for your child as it provides additional exercises and skill building over a longer period of time. Students find that proper preparation and skill-building over time leads to greater confidence with practice over time, leading to the greatest score increase and success.

PREPSKILLS® SSAT Condensed Prep is an option for students that may find themselves up against time constraints when preparing to write the SSAT. This course provides a shorter timeline than our Plus Program and is best suited if your child has 6 weeks or less to prepare for the SSAT test.

MASTER YOUR ELEVATOR PITCH!

“Part of the preparation I do with students is have them give a quick ‘elevator pitch’ to each other. I ask what they remember about each other’s pitches. If no one remembers what you said, you are not creating a lasting impression. Therefore, you want the student to be authentic, poised without sounding coached, self assured, transparent and engaging.”

~Joanna Severino, Educator, Founder & President, PREPSKILLS

Practice your elevator pitch until you master it, in order to portray your best unique self in a memorable way to school administrators.

COMPUTEST™
: an online diagnostic test that parallels the SSAT developed exclusively by PREPSKILLS®. This test helps determine student proficiencies and areas for improvement in terms of strategy, content, skills and time management. Teachers then work alongside students to formulate a plan to address the results of the test and parents are provided with detailed progress reports.

PREPSKILLS® Midterm and Final Simulated Tests: written under real test conditions at the midterm and end of course. Students are provided the chance to familiarize themselves with the SSAT by writing a simulated test. We believe in taking our students OUT of their comfort zone to provide a real simulated testing environment. Not only does this help relieve anxiety but it also serves to increase student confidence. The tests parallel the verbal, reading comprehension, quantitative and essay sections of the SSAT.
