Synopsis

This book provides a complete course to prepare for the Middle Level ISEE. Instruction is comprehensive for both the strategies and content that students need to ace the Middle Level ISEE. This content includes

• Vocabulary lessons that ask students to categorize words and derive meanings from roots so that they can handle anything on test day
• Math content lessons that explain what concepts will be tested and how they are likely to appear on the actual test
• Detailed strategies and drills for the reading section
• Tips for the unscored essay
• One full-length practice test

Whether you are a family looking for a book to use independently or a school or tutoring company looking for a new text, this is the book for you. While most prep manuals from other publishers combine all levels of the ISEE and all levels of the SSAT into one single volume, all of the material in this book is specific to the Middle Level ISEE. Students currently in grades 6-7 who are applying to be admitted to grades 7-8 should take the Middle Level test.

Success on the Middle Level ISEE: A Complete Course is part of a series of books from Test Prep Works developed specifically for the Middle Level ISEE. The series also includes:

• The Best Unofficial Practice Tests for the Middle Level ISEE -- This book includes 2 additional full-length practice tests (with different questions than the practice test in Success on the Middle Level ISEE: A Complete Course, so there is no overlap between the books.)
