Advantage Testing SSAT Q&A

Not everyone needs to take the SSAT. If you are applying to an independent or private school, you should check the admissions requirements to see if you are required to take the SSAT, the ISEE, or another specialized admissions test.

If you do need to take the SSAT for admission, make sure to register for the correct level:

• Elementary Level SSAT: for students applying to grades 4 and 5
• Middle Level SSAT: for students applying to grades 6–8
• Upper Level SSAT: for students applying to grades 9–12
