About SSAT
 To apply for private schools in hawaii you need take the SSAT.
The Secondary School Admission Test (SSAT) is a multiple-choice
aptitude test for students in grades 5-11. The test consists of verbal,
quantitative (math) and reading comprehension sections. The verbal
questions test your vocabulary, verbal reasoning, and ability to relate
ideas logically. The quantitative (math) questions test your ability to
solve problems involving arithmetic, elementary algebra and geometry
concepts. The reading comprehension section will test your ability to
understand what you read. All tests are printed in English.
In addition, the test includes a writing sample portion, which asks you
to respond to a topic statement. Your essay is not graded, but a copy
accompanies each SSAT score report you have sent to a school or
consultant.
The SSAT is designed for students in grades 5 through 11 and is administered on two levels:
• Lower (for students currently in grades 5-7)
• Upper (for students currently in grades 8-11)
