It is obvious that Lauren is passionate about what she does, and I think the kids can sense that. Our son actually looks forward to their SSAT sessions, he likes to share the logic puzzles with us.

Mark R.

SSAT Montreal helped me turn a 51st percentile into an 87th. I would never have achieved the results I obtained without Lauren’s help.

The SSAT is an admissions test for high school students. It stands for Secondary School Admissions Test. It is part of your application to prep school. The SAT is an admissions test for university students. It stands for Standard Admissions Test. It is part of your university application and is normally taken in grade 12, when you are applying to university. The PSAT is a test that prepares students for the SAT, like a "pre-SAT", or a "practice SAT". Prep schools give the PSAT to students in grade 10 and 11 to prepare them for the SAT. It stands for Preliminary Scholastic Aptitude Test. Generally, you would not hand in your PSAT to universities — its main purpose is to serve as an introduction to the SAT. There are also opportunities to win scholarships/awards early on if your PSAT scores are in the top scores of your region. Learn more about the differences between the tests here.
