The detailed online lessons offer comprehensive, high-quality test prep to give necessary skills to get high score in the 9th grade SHSAT.This online course helps to prepare for the 9th grade SHSAT (New York Specialized High Schools Admission Test).
New York City students, who were not offered a seat in a specialized high school in 8th grade SHSAT, may take the 9th grade SHSAT in November for another opportunity. Since the number of seats available for 9th graders is just a few hundreds (as against about 4,000 seats for 8th graders), a high score in SHSAT 9th grade is required to be accepted into a specialized high school.
First, let’s compare the SHSAT for 8th and 9th grades:
| SHSAT | 8th Grade | 9th Grade |
| ELA Section | 57 Qs |
|
| Math Section | 57 Qs |
|
As you could notice, a major part of 9th grade SHSAT is the same as 8th grade SHSAT! Therefore, it is not enough for a student to focus just on 9th grade topics. The student must also be strong in 8th grade SHSAT topics to get a high score in 9th grade SHSAT.
At SamSchool, our 8th grade SHSAT Prep already covers advanced math topics for 9th grade and also includes 2 additional math lessons to for 9th grade students. (See these free math lessons to learn about our math standards and methodologies.)
As a result, we have excellent success rates every year for 9th graders – though some 9th graders still do not make it. In fact, our record SHSAT scores were often achieved by 9th grade SHSAT Takers! SamSchool’s 9th graders have been accepted to Stuyvesant High School, Bronx Science High School and other specialized high schools. See: SHSAT Achievers List for details.
