The Independent School Entrance Examination (ISEE) is more than just an assessment; it’s a gateway to top-tier independent and private schools. Designed to evaluate a student’s verbal, mathematical, and quantitative reasoning, as well as reading comprehension and essay writing, the ISEE serves as a benchmark for academic preparedness. At Zinkerz, we understand the stakes, which is why we’ve developed a robust ISEE Prep program to help students not only meet but exceed expectations.
What is the ISEE?
The ISEE is an admissions test required by many independent and private schools across the United States. It’s divided into three levels based on the student’s grade:
- Primary Level: For students entering grades 2-4
- This level tests only Math and Reading Comprehension skills, focusing on basic academic abilities without an essay or additional sections.
- Lower Level: For students entering grades 5-6
- Upper Level: For students entering grades 9-12
- Middle Level: For students entering grades 7-8
Each level tests five core sections:
- Verbal Reasoning
- Quantitative Reasoning
- Reading Comprehension
- Mathematics Achievement
- Essay
The essay section is not scored but sent directly to schools as part of the student’s application package, showcasing their ability to articulate thoughts and express ideas clearly.
