December 2014 SSAT Opinions

<p>Hey guys, what were you thoughts on the SSAT? Easy? Hard?</p>

<p>Neutral. I’ve taken the SSAT a few times over the past two years and I haven’t really noticed a difference. </p>

<p>I’m considering canceling my scores, to be honest. I almost definitely bombed that :frowning: </p>

<p>Hey, @HistoryGeek40‌, at least wait 'til they come. Nothing good can come out of canceling. ;)</p>

<p>What is an SSAT? Is that different than the SAT?</p>

<p>@albert69‌ Hey! Welcome to the Prep School Section of CC. The SSAT is for Independent School admissions, whil the SAT is for college. </p>

<p>Oh, okay.</p>

<p>SSAT = Secondary School Admissions Test</p>

<p>I took it in October and this time around. I also thought that it was pretty similar. </p>

<p>As in Oct, for me the reading section was the hardest (It had 10 passages, compared to the practice tests which only had 7-8!).</p>

<p>I thought reading was slightly difficult for the October one as well. I ended up running out of time and making educational guesses on two of them, without giving much thought. I still ended up getting a 94 on reading, though. :)</p>

<p>Did you guess or leave any blank for the one this month?</p>

<p>My daughter took them, she thought one math section was harder than last time</p>

<p>I thought that the reading EXTREMELY was difficult. I thought that it was much more difficult that other times. Also, I think that the math and the verbal were easier than any other time. I had time to check my work 5 min early for both sections.</p>

<p>I am stressing about reading. How do you think the reading section difficulty was?</p>

<p>^ Yeah, compared to the Oct. test, I think the verbal was easier - or maybe I was just more prepared for it. I thought the math was pretty similar.</p>

<p>For me, the math was much easier in October than it was in November. Kind of stressing because it won’t look too good if I got a 93 in math in October and an 83 in math in November.</p>

<p>EDIT: ^^^^^ I mean *November and *December, not October and November. </p>

<p>Result will be released today?</p>

<p>I just received mine!</p>

<p>Me too! 95 overall and 99 in just my gender group! Even though my math score went down by a bit, I’m really happy with my overall.</p>

<p>Congrats!</p>
