The SSAT is a multiple choice test comprising verbal, quantitative (math) and reading comprehension sections. In addition to these, the test also includes an essay writing portion which requires the student to write his/her responses to a topic statement. The writing portion is not graded but it will be sent together with the SSAT test score to the schools that you specify.

The SSAT is designed for students in grades 5 to 11 (i.e., ages 11 to 17). There are twol levels of the test - Upper Level (grades 8 to 11), and Lower Level (grades 5 to 7). The distribution of the 5 sections is as follows:

Writing Sample	25 minutes	1
Reading Comprehension	40 minutes	40
Verbal (Synonyms and Analogies)	30 minutes	60
Quantitative (Math)	30 minutes	25

Course Description
If you plan to take the SSAT soon, you may wish to consider taking a preparation course to help you achieve your maximum potential score. Our SSAT course is suitable for students in Singapore who are planning to pursue their secondary school education in America. As the SSAT test is an American test, certain terminologies, test format as well as test psychology may be unfamiliar to local school students. Our course will prepare students fully for these nuances while strengthening the student's overall vocabulary, reading, writing and mathematical skills. As most students in Singapore face greater problems in the Verbal and Reading Comprehension sections of the SSAT, our course is geared more towards strengthening the students' abilities in these areas while not compromising their mathematical abilities as the Quantitative sections of the test can be tricky at times as well.

The Studyworks SSAT course is offered on a part-time basis. Students are required to attend classes twice a week for at least 1 hour each time. For best results, students are encouraged to set aside at least another 20 to 25 hours outside of class to self-study and review the lessons learned in class.

There are 2 full-length practice tests that will be given at the beginning, the middle and at the end of the course. At the end of the course, students should be able to demonstrate increased abilities to answer difficult vocabulary questions, understand moderate to complex reading passages as well as be able to write an essay of substantial quality. Students should also be conversant in answering the different types of questions in the quantitative section (math) of the test.
