Word Count: 13,900

This Kindle eBook only contains SSAT Upper Level MATH problems. The actual SSAT Upper Level contains Verbal, Reading and Writing sections as well, but this eBook does NOT cover those sections.

This Kindle eBook is intended for use by current EIGHTH, NINTH and TENTH graders applying for private schools that require the SSAT Upper.

FIRST HALF of this eBook ( Problems #1 thru #150 )

The first half ( #1 to #150 ) of the problem set of this Kindle eBook contains "easy-medium" SSAT Upper Math aptitude problems. If your child is currently in 8th grade, or has an SSAT Upper Math scaled score below 650, he or she should focus on these problems first. These more fundamental problems provide an array of intermediary steps to transition to harder SSAT aptitude problems. The SSAT Upper can be challenging and intimidating, but these "easy-medium" problems will build a foundation of skill, confidence and rhythm in a young test-taker.

SECOND HALF of this eBook ( Problems #151 thru #300 )

The second half ( #151 to #300 ) of the problem set of this Kindle eBook contains "medium-hard" SSAT Upper Math aptitude problems. If your child is currently in 9th or 10th grade, or has an SSAT Upper Math scaled score above 650, he or she can focus on these problems. These "medium-hard" problems are designed to challenge advanced test-takers to reach the 680 - 750+ scaled score range preferred at many top private institutions across the country.

What are the advantages of these 300 SSAT Upper Level MATH Practice Problems?

A pervasive characteristic of SSAT private school admission exams is that they are very difficult, oftentimes featuring test questions one to four grade levels above your child's current public or private school curriculum. The SSAT targets a small, highly competitive group of students applying for top private schools across the nation.

Using our years of experience developing training guides for a national test preparation company, we've created SSAT study materials that closely approximate the sequence, scope, phrasing and difficulty level of actual exams. We've accomplished this through years of meticulous research into individual SSAT test questions and through information acquired from former test participants. Thousands of applicants have worked through the 300 SSAT Upper Level Math practice problems contained within this Kindle eBook to enhance their candidacies in the private school admission process.

Parents should not overreact to "lower-than-expected" results. (Easy for us to say!) In addition to SSAT scores, most private schools take into account academic performance, teacher / counselor / coach recommendations, extracurricular activities and the personal interview / essay / portfolio in their admissions decision. But, of course, high SSAT scores help immensely. Remember that every child can improve his or her SSAT performance with the right mix of effort, instruction, materials, experience and encouragement!
