About this course:

The SHSAT Score Builder program is designed for students preparing to take the Specialized High Schools Admissions Test (SHSAT) who want to strengthen their performance through structured practice and targeted strategy refinement. Across 24 hours of small-group instruction (capped at 12 students), students complete full-length SHSAT practice tests followed by guided review sessions. Instructors analyze results, reinforce key concepts, and teach strategies that help students improve timing, accuracy, and decision-making.

This program focuses on helping students apply the skills they have already developed while refining their approach to complex SHSAT questions. Through repeated practice and instructor feedback, students learn how to manage time effectively, avoid common mistakes, and approach the exam with greater confidence.

By the end of the program, students are well prepared to perform their best on test day.

Verbal Skills:
Students review results from full-length practice tests and analyze errors in reading comprehension, revising and editing, and vocabulary questions. Instructors help students identify patterns in mistakes, refine strategies for approaching complex passages, and apply more efficient methods for answering challenging questions.

Math Skills:
Students analyze errors from full-length SHSAT practice tests and refine strategies for solving multi-step math problems. Instruction focuses on identifying common mistakes, improving accuracy, and strengthening students’ ability to apply the most efficient approach under timed conditions.

Practice & Feedback:
Throughout the program, students complete full-length SHSAT practice tests followed by detailed review sessions. Instructors guide students through error analysis, helping them understand why mistakes occurred and how to adjust their strategies. This process allows students to refine their approach, strengthen weak areas, and steadily improve performance on each subsequent test.
