ISEE常见问题

No. 一个考试并不比另一个容易. 了解ISEE的重要一点 S坐两种考试都是针对 相同的材料. They are offered by different organizations, but students who take the ISEE and S坐考试要求考生掌握以下内容:

  1. 数学
  2. 语法技巧
  3. 词汇表
  4. 阅读理解
  5. 逻辑推理
  6. 论文写作

If you want proof of this, go online or to a local store and try to find a book that only covers the ISEE or the S坐 – you will not, because publishers have found that creating 单独记账效率低.

是的,这很重要. 如果内容基本相同,你可能想知道“为什么它是 无论学生参加哪项考试?“原因是,尽管潜在的内容是 similar, the exams are unique in the cognitive abilities that they are assessing, their 结构,以及它们的评分. 这些差异将与……的独特优势相一致 特殊的学生.

例如,如果符合以下条件,学生在ISEE上可能会更强:

  • 该学生掌握了材料,但在时间和时间方面存在问题 奇怪的问题
  • 学生的数学能力比语言/阅读能力强——ISEE更看重数学 比S坐(1/2数学在ISEE vs. S坐数学占1/3)

如果满足以下条件,学生可能会在S坐考试中表现更好:

  • 这个学生擅长解谜和处理复杂的措辞 概念
  • The student is stronger on verbal/reading than math (2/3 verbal/reading weight bat365S坐 vs. 1/2口语/ ISEE阅读)

这些仍然只是指导方针,而不是具体的规则. 对学生来说最好的方法 decide is to complete a practice exam for each test and see if they have a “test preference” ——他们自然会在考试中表现得更好.

No. 学生不能在ISEE上使用计算器.

The ISEE will send official score reports only to those 学校 that students designate.

The ISEE does not “Super Score” – Which means that students cannot combine the highest 不同考试机构的部分成绩.

是的. 学校可以查看学生的ISEE论文.

At all levels, students receive the following information for the four scored sections:

  • 量表得分(760 - 940)
  • 百分位数(1至99)
  • 斯坦宁(1至9)

Scores on the ISEE are in comparison only to students in the same grade who have taken 过去三年的测试.

没有一个“好的”ISEE分数. 分数的质量取决于学校 哪个学生在申请.

The most-competitive 学校 generally seek scores above the 80th percentile on each of 计分部分.

  • 初级:听力理解(仅二年级)/阅读、数学
  • 低,上,中:文字推理,数量推理,阅读 理解和数学成绩

To send scores, you may indicate a school’s ISEE code at the time of test registration, or you may wait to receive your child’s results 之前 designating score recipients through 您孩子的ISEE帐户.

ISEE的多项选择题没有猜中扣分. 因此,学生 should answer all of the questions they know, then the questions they can eliminate and guess, 然后他们应该随机猜测一个部分剩下的问题.

在选择一个测试日期时没有统计学上的优势. 学生应该 choose test dates that make the most sense for their schedule and their preparation.
