SHSAT tutoring for NYC families
The SHSAT is the single gate to New York's specialized high schools, taken once in the autumn of grade 8. With one sitting and no portfolio, preparation depth decides everything: pacing across both sections, and the stamina for a 180-minute test.

Common questions
When should SHSAT prep start?๏ผ
Summer before grade 8 is the classic runway, with weekly sessions through autumn. The test usually falls in October and November, so a June or July start leaves comfortable room for full-length practice tests.
Can my child retake the SHSAT?๏ผ
Only under limited conditions (such as a ninth-grade sit for first-time applicants), which is why preparation treats the single sitting with the seriousness it deserves: mocks first, exam-day habits second.
