While there's no nationally standardized scoring, the exam tests your 8th grader's language, math quantitative, reading, and verbal skills. Those taking the test aim to get as close to an 800 as they can, but understanding all the content and the format of the exam is tough. The educational directors at Varsity Tutors could help your child connect with an independent tutor in Manhattan, NY, who can assist you in understanding the HSPT.

Tutors are also open to face-to-face meetings on the web, using a live learning platform that is designed to optimize HSPT instruction and preparation.
