Manhattan ISEE Tutoring FAQ
The Independent School Entrance Exam, also known as the ISEE, is an exam that is required for students who are seeking admission into certain private schools. A student's score is utilized by school administrators to determine whether a student would be a good fit at that particular school. The test consists of five different sections, which include quantitative reasoning, reading comprehension, math achievement, verbal reasoning, and an essay which is ungraded but sent to the school admission board for consideration with the test score. The test is administered across three different grade levels depending on whether your child is seeking admission into an elementary, middle, or high school. All three tests are similar, only with question difficulty becoming more complex the higher the test level. If your child could be seeking admission into an independent school, then achieving a high score on this test is imperative for them to be accepted. A personal tutor who is an expert at teaching the ISEE can help your child as they prepare for this important exam.
