HSPT test prep taught me test taking skills that not only helped me with my Benet entrance exam, but with every test and quiz I have taken throughout my high school career. This class taught me how to pace myself and choose the best answers especially for multiple choice. HSPT taught me basic building blocks of test taking I am still building on today.

Coming from a public school background, my parents and I did not know what to expect about the HSPT test. With the prep course, I was able to get acquainted with the topics and curriculum of the placement test. I did numerous timed practice tests, multiple choice questions, reading excerpts, math problems, vocab lessons, and many more! Going into the exam I felt very comfortable and prepared because of the prep course and private tutoring sessions. I would definitely recommend this course for incoming high school students who want to excel and gain experience before going into the entrance exam!
