Highly HIGHLY Recommend!

I HIGHLY recommend! I first purchased Target for my third-grade child, who is learning multiplication and division. After finding it successful and fun, I then purchased it for a fourth-grade child I tutor for in a different state. We played for an hour and a half. What I particularly enjoy about it is that we can modify it based upon current skill level. Learning online is a challenge, but this was extremely enjoyable for my pupil. I will be purchasing my THIRD game for the other pupil I tutor (first grade) to support their academic learning. GREAT INVESTMENT! I HIGHLY recommend!

Best HSPT Study Guide My Family Has Found

This is the best resource I've found of several we've looked at for my 8th grader's HSPT prep. Pros:- Questions are organized by sub-topic, so your kiddo can do a bunch of the same question types in a row to help figure out the pattern/approach to those types of questions.- 3 full length practice exams in the book, 2 extras available online (for additional cost)- The practice exams seem high quality. I've not found any mistakes.- Online videos for specific topics Cons:- None really other than that the other study materials aren't as high quality, so now that we've exhausted this book I'm struggling to find another. Barron's seems to be second best but is mostly geared toward practice exams versus how this book is broken town with topic specific practice making up about 50% of the questions.

A great tutoring/mathematics resource

This ISEE Upper Level book is a home run!! I'm a math tutor who works with kids of all ages and have seen/used dozens of prep books over the years. This book is well organized and has a wide array of both routine and more challenging problems covering many content areas. I have used it both for standardized test preparation and simply to work on foundational skill-building and/or problem-solving strategies. I actually stumbled upon it by accident and feel very fortunate that I did. I would HIGHLY recommend it for both tutors and parents who are looking for the right mathematics resource for their child.

Great fun educational game for any child or even adult!

Linked is great for any child whether homeschooling or in public school to sharpen skills. Even great for adults. My son (7) was not too thrilled when I told him it was a math game and educational but as we started to play he caught on quickly and was hooked! He even helped me find an equation lol! He asked to keep playing after I said it's time to put away for the day. The creator of this game put a lot of thought into this game. I love how gameplay can be adjusted based off of age and skill or if you just simply would like to switch it up. This will be our go to weekly game. I love everything from the design to the colors and cards are thick and stirdy. Highly recommend. Linked is great for any child whether homeschooling or in public school to sharpen skills.

Excellent Book for Middle Level ISEE prep

Middle level ISEE book is excellent. I highly recommend it. There are not that many average, let alone good test prep books for ISEE’s. The content in this book is high quality, and well presented.

Worth $20,000!!

This HSPT book helped my son earn a 50% tuition scholarship to Catholic High School! My son used this test prep book for 30 min to an 1 hr every weekday all summer prior to taking the test in the fall of his 8th grade year. If they put the time in they will see increased scores!

Thank you for making math fun again!

My 3rd grader is currently struggling with math and this has her asking to "please do math". Because it's just us adults playing with her we changed the rules and made it a group activity versus us playing against each other. So we pick a target and then figure out as many ways as possible to make it to the target as a group. This has given her much confidence and as she's trying to find ways to get to the target she is practicing so much. Once we are more confident we may play against each other. But either way the game is well made and there are few games that cover all: addition, subtraction, multiplication and division. Thank you for making math fun again!

Comprehensive ISEE Lower Level Book

As an ISEE coach, I spend lots of time trying to find the right materials to use with my students. I would rather spend my time with my students than develop my own materials. I found this book extremely useful and have had success with it! Yes, many of the math problems are not multiple choice. However, I think that is actually MORE helpful because it helps my students actually learn the math rather than simply know how to answer a multiple choice question. I use the practice tests to work on multiple choice skills. You cannot find a better book out there!

Challenging, but prepares your student

My 8th grader used this book to self study for the ISEE Upper Level. His strategy was to complete the practice tests and review the sections/questions which gave him trouble. His study focus was primarily in Quantitative Reasoning and Mathematics as the math instruction at his school was not the best. He went through all 3 practice tests, ensuring he knew how to approach each type of question. In the end, he felt he was well prepared and said the questions in this book were, in general, more challenging than those on the actual test. He got a great result with the scores he wanted, which enabled him to gain admittance to his school of choice. My 8th grader used this book to self study for the ISEE Upper Level.

Obliging book and founder

I had two weeks to prepare for the ISEE Middle Level and was very stressed out as a result 😩 After browsing Amazon for a prep book, I found myself ordering this book. For prospective parents, looking for a book for your child, you won't be disappointed. Elevate Prep is a comprehensive and informative 👌 book. Answering the practice questions helped to familiarize myself with the exam and what I could expect to see. Explanations on the official Elevate Prep website were a very big help, as well. Full length practice tests, too, helping me grow from my mistakes. If that wasn't enough, the founder, Lisa James, always took her time to answer my questions via email. I could ask her 5 questions and in the next few hours I'd get a response. Her explanations made sense and increased my confidence by daily. She even offered free tutoring sessions and went through questions in the book for 30 minutes. Even when my brain got fuzzy, she remained kind in those sessions😊 After taking the ISEE, I felt so confident/rest assured and knew that Lisa's help was worth it all. Your money won't be wasted it all 👍 I had two weeks to prepare for the ISEE Middle Level and was very stressed out as a result 😩...
