How often should students take a mock test?

Ideally, students will complete at least 3 full-length practice tests before they take the ISEE, SAT, or ACT exam. However, parents should be careful not to force students to take mock tests in quick succession without sufficient studying.

We expect students to complete a minimum of 20 hours of tutoring and self-study between each mock test. Forgoing this recommendation risks demoralizing students and/or being disappointed by lack of perceived improvement.

Students working with us have access to more than 12 full-length practice tests.
