There are three versions of the SSAT, developed for elementary, middle, and upper grade students. Each version is multiple choice format and includes four sections: quantitative, reading comprehension, verbal reasoning, and an essay. The quantitative section involves math computation at grade level - number sense, properties, operations, algebra and functions, geometry and spatial sense, measurement and probability.
