The SSAT is the test to take to get into many of the best independent schools in the world. Many schools require it, so you won’t want to delay SSAT registration if you are considering an independent school. Your SSAT score will be sent to any independent schools you choose to share it with, along with your application to the school.

Students in grades 3 through PG can take the SSAT, which is available on three levels (Elementary, Middle, and Upper​​).  Check out the SSAT registration calendar and SSAT test fees on SSAT.org. While you’re there, you may also follow the steps to register, which are listed here:
