Fairfield SSAT Tutoring FAQ
The SSAT, or Secondary School Admissions Test, is given to students in third through eleventh grades who are applying to private schools. There are three levels, the lower, middle, and upper level, depending on a student's grade. Each level has four sections: quantitative, reading comprehension, verbal reasoning, and an unscored essay, which is nevertheless sent to the schools they apply to. The test is offered each year, once a month from October through April, and then once again in June. It is not unusual for this to be the first standardized test your student may take, and as standardized tests are so different from regular classroom testing, it's a good idea to get your child a little help studying for the SSAT. Let Varsity Tutors find an expert SSAT tutor in Fairfield with the experience, skills, and teaching approach that matches your child's needs
