The High School Placement Test (HSPT) is a standardized exam used by many private and parochial high schools in the United States to assess the academic abilities of prospective students. Below is an overview of the HSPT, along with the skills it tests and preparation tips.
Group courses are taught in conjunction with the COOP HSPT, TACHS and SHSAT with the SHSAT being the primary focus due to the content being more rigorous for this exam.

● HSPT Crash Course (8 Weeks):

practice.
● HSPT 1:1 Intensive (Flexible):
