[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is actually better as time spent studying for Hunter is also time spent studying for ISEE so is a better use of time as it is more of a transferable skill in the highly likely case your kid doesn't get into Hunter. So if you are considering private it is great. My kid took ISEE and SHSAT and they are different but there is a fair amount of overlap so it is also somewhat helpful for that.[/quote] This is true, but while the tests are similar, Hunter is taken in January of 6th grade while the SHSAT and (high school intake year) ISEE are fall of 8th grade, so I don't know how much prep they'll remember 2 years later - if anything it feels more like an argument for making a big test prep push for private school in 5th grade because that's a lot closer (and of course if they screw up their spring standardized tests in 5th grade they won't even get to take the Hunter test).[/quote]
