Our preparation material for standardized tests like the ISEE, ACT, and SAT go through a rigorous research, writing, and editing process:
- We analyze the test specifications released from the publishers like College Board and ACT.
- We analyze the previously released official practice tests.
- We write our practice tests based off this analysis while citing official practice test questions.
- We edit each question and test for facsimile to the official tests, difficulty, and completeness.
- We peer norm each question with actual students.
- And because 10,000 sets of eyes are still better than our 10 sets, we continuously make improvements from your feedback.
Our brilliant writers scored in the top 1% on these tests, and our Houston-based team of editor/educators has more than 20 years of experience in K12 education. We won’t let you down!
Currently, all of our Math and ELA courses are estimated to take around 40 hours to complete. School is in session for roughly 35 weeks out of the year; assuming a student works roughly 1 hour per week, your Piqosity math course will take the average student a full academic year to complete. Students using Piqosity to remediate or prepare for a standardized test such as the ISEE Lower Level, will likely have to compress this timeline.
Yes! Piqosity’s courses are designed to meet your student where they are, and they can be used for both enrichment and remediation. Your child can use Piqosity’s lessons and practice materials to review and reinforce the concepts they are struggling with in class. If they aren’t sure where to start, they can take a diagnostic test to help them understand where their weaknesses lie, or they can use the Piqosity Virtual Tutor to progress through the Course Outline from start to finish.
