What to Expect on the ISEE

Introduction to the ISEE

Background Information

What Is the ISEE?

The Independent School Entrance Exam (ISEE) is an admission test developed by the Educational

Records Bureau (ERB) for its member schools as part of their admission process. The ISEE was created

by Measurement Incorporated, Durham, NC, and ERB, with assistance from faculty of ERB member

schools.

The current edition has been updated to include educational assessment best practices and to align with

national standards in English and mathematics as articulated in standards adopted by the National

Council of Teachers of English (NCTE) and the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics (NCTM).

Nearly two-thirds of the questions on the ISEE were developed by ERB-member faculty and

administrators from a cross section of independent schools across the United States under the direction

of test development specialists at Measurement Incorporated.

The ISEE is the admission test of choice for many independent schools throughout the country and

abroad. Test sites are available in numerous cities during the admission testing season. The ISEE

consists of five sections at three levels designed to measure the verbal and quantitative reasoning and

achievement of students in grades 4

–11 seeking admission to grades 5

–12 in independent schools.

Students seeking admission to grades 5 or 6 take the Lower Level; students seeking admission to

grades 7 or 8 take the Middle Level; and students seeking admission to grades 9–12 take the

Upper Level.

It is important to note that the ISEE may not be taken for practice; it may be taken only for the purpose

of providing scores to participating schools as part of the admission process. An applicant may take the

ISEE only once per admission season or six month window.

The five sections that make up the ISEE are (in order of testing): Verbal Reasoning, Quantitative

Reasoning, Reading Comprehension, Mathematics Achievement, and an Essay which is written by

the student in his or her own handwriting in response to a given writing prompt. Each section is

designed to tap into a unique aspect of a student’s preparation for academic work.

The first four sections consist entirely of multiple-choice questions. Results are reported in percentile

ranks; that is, each student’s performance is measured against a norm group made up of students

applying to independent schools in the same grade who have tested over the past three years. The essay

is not scored but sent directly to the school(s) to which the student has applied, along with the score

report. More will be said about how the test is scored on pages 18–20.

How Does a Student Arrange To Take the ISEE?

Students may take the ISEE in one of the following ways:

1. The ISEE is given by consortia of schools in cities throughout the United States where schools

have joined together and have chosen to use a common entrance test program.

2. The ISEE is given at individual school test sites, either open or closed, at a wide variety of

schools throughout the country and abroad and on a number of test dates.

Complete registration information may be found in the ISEE Student Guide, which is updated each year

and is available from the independent schools who administer the test. For online registration

information, visit www.erblearn.org

What Types of Questions Are on the ISEE?

The first four sections are composed of multiple-choice questions. The fifth section, the essay, is not

scored but requires the student to respond in his or her own handwriting to a preselected writing prompt.

The first two sections, Verbal Reasoning and Quantitative Reasoning, measure the applicant’s

reasoning ability.

 The Upper Level Verbal Reasoning section consists of two types of items: vocabulary and

sentence completion. Each vocabulary item consists of an abstract, grade-level appropriate word

followed by four possible answer choices. Each sentence completion item consists of a sentence

with one missing word or pair of words followed by four potential answer choices. A student

must select the word or pair of words that most appropriately completes the context of the

sentence.

 At the Upper Level, the Quantitative Reasoning section consists of word problems and

quantitative comparisons. The word problems differ somewhat from traditional mathematics

achievement items in that some of them require either no calculation or simple calculation. The

quantitative comparison items present two quantities, (A) and (B), and ask the student to select

one of four answer choices:

(A) The quantity in Column A is greater.

(B) The quantity in Column B is greater.

(D) The relationship cannot be determined from the information given.

The next two sections, Reading Comprehension and Mathematics Achievement, measure the

applicant’s ability to correctly answer curriculum-based concepts that are appropriate at that grade level

according to curriculum standards adopted by the National Council of Teachers of English (NCTE) and

the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics (NCTM).

What to Expect on the ISEE

Introduction to the ISEE

 In order to determine a student’s reading comprehension skills, in the Reading Comprehension

section, the student is asked to read a passage and then answer items specific to that passage.

The six passages in this section are age-appropriate and length-appropriate. Each passage is

especially written to contain contemporary information and to be of high interest to students in

the middle grades. The passages cover a variety of subject areas including arts, contemporary

life, history, and science.

 Mathematics Achievement items conform to national mathematics standards and ask the

student to identify the problem and find a solution to a problem. The items require one or more

steps in calculating the answer.

The Essay is written by the student in response to a writing “prompt” or topic that is grade-level

appropriate. The prompts rotate throughout the testing season. They are designed to prompt a student to

write an informed essay on a particular topic. As is true of the passages in the Reading Comprehension

section, these prompts have been written for a contemporary feel and a high level of interest to current

students. Each prompt is free of bias, global in scope, and representative of a wide variety of subjects.

Each prompt is one or two sentences long and asks students to respond to the situation described.

Prompts may relate to the student, to the student’s community, or to the world in general.

ERB does not score the written essay. They send a copy of the essay to the school(s) designated on the

ISEE registration form along with the scores on the rest of the test. They do not send a copy of the essay

to the parents.

Introduction to the ISEE

Information for Students

Why Is the ISEE Required?

The school you are applying to has requested ISEE scores as part of the overall admissions process. By

requiring an admission test for all students entering the same grade, the school can view one common

item of all applicants. The school looks at many items in conjunction with the ISEE scores, including

your application, your current school records, and possibly an interview. All components of the

admission process, including the ISEE scores, help the school, you, and your family determine the best

school match for you.

What Happens to My Scores?

After you take the ISEE and your answer sheet is scored, ERB will send copies of the scores and the

essay you wrote to the schools that you have chosen, within seven to ten business days. They will send a

copy of your test scores (but not a copy of the essay) to your family.

Reminder: The ISEE may be taken only when making a formal application to a school(s). You may take

the ISEE only once per admission season, and you may not take the ISEE for practice.

How Will This Book Help Me?

Unlike other ISEE test preparation materials, this book was written by the same people who developed

the ISEE. The sample questions and practice test questions in this book include actual questions from

previous versions of the ISEE. Use this book to

 see what the ISEE looks like and how it is structured;

 read sample questions and answers with an explanation of each correct answer choice;

 read the exact directions that you will be given when you take the ISEE;

 take a practice test that has questions like those on the real ISEE; and

 use an answer sheet like the one you will use when you take the ISEE.

We hope that working through this book will make you feel even more confident and prepared when

you take the ISEE because you will know what to expect.

Introduction to the ISEE

Information for Adults

How This Book Can Help Your Student Prepare for the ISEE

The information in this book offers your student an opportunity to become familiar with all aspects of

the ISEE. It is particularly helpful because the sample questions and practice test questions were either

chosen from previous editions of the ISEE or were written by ERB-member school faculty and

administrators and by experts in test development. Using this book will allow your student to

 read and answer sample questions, check for the correct answers, and then read the explanations

for why the answers are correct;

 take a practice test that contains questions similar to those on the actual ISEE, see a sample

answer sheet that is like the answer sheet on the real test, and read the actual directions he or she

will receive on the day of the test; and

 score the practice test and compare that score with those of other students who took the actual

ISEE.

How You Can Help Your Student Prepare for the ISEE

There are specific ways you may help prepare your student, not only for the ISEE, but for other

standardized tests as well.

 Show confidence in your student’s ability to do well on the ISEE.

 Remind your student that the ISEE is just one piece of information a school will use in its

admission process.

 Mark the test date on your calendar so that both you and your student are aware of the date.

 Make sure that your student gets a good night’s sleep before the test.

 Make sure that your student eats a healthy breakfast before the test.

 Encourage your student to read as part of his or her daily routine. By reading new materials, your

student will be exposed to new concepts and vocabulary.

Reminders for Your Student

Remind your student to employ the following helpful strategies when answering multiple-choice

questions.

 Read the entire question before attempting to answer it.

 Try to answer the question without looking at the choices. Then, look at the choices to see if your

answer is the same as, or close to, one of the choices. Wherever possible, answer choices on this

test are arranged alphabetically, numerically, or by length of the answer to help the student locate

the correct answer more quickly.

 Next, eliminate answers you know are not correct.

 Finally, choose the correct answer. If necessary, make an educated guess from the remaining

choices, since there is no penalty for incorrect responses.

Introduction to the ISEE

Frequently Asked Questions

Which level of the ISEE does my student take?

There are three levels of the ISEE.

 Students currently in grades 4 and 5 (applicants to grades 5 or 6) take the Lower Level.

 Students currently in grades 6 and 7 (applicants to grades 7 or 8) take the Middle Level.

 Students currently in grades 8 and above (applicants to grades 9-12) take the

Upper Level.

Are there multiple versions of the ISEE?

At each of the three levels, there are several different, but equivalent, forms. The specific

forms to be used each year will be determined in advance by ERB. These forms are randomly

assigned to the students and are statistically equivalent, regardless of which form was

actually taken by the student.

How is the ISEE structured?

Each level and each form of the ISEE has five sections. The sections are administered in the

following order:

 Verbal Reasoning

 Quantitative Reasoning

 Reading Comprehension

 Mathematics Achievement

 Essay

The sections and the essay are explained more fully in the next part of this book.

What can my student expect at the test site on the day of the test?

Students will present their verification letter or identification to be checked in upon arrival.

So that your child may concentrate on doing his or her best on the ISEE, schools do not

conduct admission activities or highlight their schools on the day of testing. We know that

testing may be stressful for some students; therefore, the test administrators are teachers or

other school personnel who teach or interact with children on a daily basis. Although test

administrators may not discuss test questions during the test, they give clear test directions,

and your child is encouraged to ask for clarification, if necessary, before beginning each

section of the test.

What to Expect on the ISEE

Introduction to the ISEE

What types of questions are on the ISEE?

The Verbal Reasoning, Quantitative Reasoning, Reading Comprehension, and Mathematics

Achievement sections contain only multiple-choice questions. Each question has four

choices. Only one answer is the correct or “best” answer. The Essay section requires the

student to write an essay in response to a prompt. There are over one hundred writing

prompts (topics) that have been developed for each level of the ISEE. A different topic is

selected by ERB for each test administration throughout the year.

Each section of the ISEE (excluding the essay) contains several questions that will not be

scored but may be used on future editions of the ISEE.

Are there any scheduled breaks during the test?

There are two breaks—one following the Quantitative Reasoning section and another

following the Mathematics Achievement section. Each break is five minutes long.

I am confused by these acronyms: ERB, ISEE, CTP. Didn’t my student take one of

these already this year?

The Educational Records Bureau (ERB) oversees both the Independent School Entrance

Exam (ISEE) and the Comprehensive Testing Program (CTP). The ISEE is a test designed to

help admission directors at selected public and independent schools decide who will be

accepted for admission to their schools, while the CTP is a battery of tests designed to collect

information about student achievement for students currently enrolled in grades 1–10.

What to Expect on the ISEE

Introduction to the ISEE

Both the ISEE and the CTP test student abilities in Verbal Reasoning, Reading

Comprehension, Quantitative Reasoning, and Mathematics. They also contain similar types

of items. Therefore, it is quite possible that your student may be somewhat familiar with the

types of questions on the ISEE if he or she has previously taken the CTP. However, it is

important to note that there is no repeat of specific items between the two tests. The ISEE is

unique in that it is used for admission purposes only and its norms are based only on

applicants to independent schools.

Are there other books or programs that might help my student improve on the ISEE?

This is the only book approved by ERB. It was written in conjunction with the test developer,

Measurement Incorporated. This book contains current and accurate information.

Since this book was written by the developer of the actual test, the sample questions and

practice test questions were chosen to accurately reflect the format and the kinds of content

your student will see on the actual ISEE. You may see programs or materials advertised that

claim to help; however, none of them are approved by ERB, nor can they claim the intimate

knowledge of the actual test questions used on this edition.

What materials does my student need to bring to the actual ISEE?

Students should bring four #2 pencils and two pens with either blue or black ink. Students

may choose to use erasable ink.

Are there materials that my student is prohibited from using during the ISEE?

Most materials other than writing implements are prohibited. Specifically, scrap paper,

calculators, calculator watches, rulers, protractors, compasses, dictionaries, and

thesauruses are NOT permitted during the actual test.

Cell phones and other electronic devices (iPods, MP3s, beepers, etc.) are not permitted

at the test site and must not be brought into the testing room. If a student uses any of these

items during the exam, his or her exam will be invalidated, and the student may not retest for

another six months. Since students are not permitted to use these devices on the actual test, it

is recommended that they avoid using them when they answer the sample test questions or

take the practice test. A certain number of these restrictions may be waived for students who

receive testing accommodations due to documented disabilities.

Are testing accommodations made if my student requires them?

Accommodations may be made for students with documented learning differences or

physical challenges. Accommodation use in school and supporting documentation of the

disability are required. For more information and the “Testing with Accommodation”

brochure, visit the ERB Web site at http://www.erblearn.org/pages/Non_Stand_ISEE.html.

What to Expect on the ISEE

Introduction to the ISEE

Will my student be penalized for a wrong answer? Is it appropriate to guess?

Scores are based on the number of correct answers. If the student can eliminate at least one of

the choices, he or she should make an educated guess from the choices that remain. A wrong

answer and an omitted answer count the same. However, it is better to move ahead to the

next item and return to the puzzling one later. No student is expected to answer all questions

correctly.

How is my student compared to other students taking the ISEE?

Your student is compared only to other independent school applicants who tested for the

same grade during the past three years. Your student is not compared to students applying to

a different grade who are taking the same level of the test. The percentile ranking on the

score report shows how your student scored in comparison to the other students applying to

the same grade. The group of students who take the ISEE—the ISEE norming population—is

a very select group of students who are applying to competitive schools. Therefore, ISEE

percentile ranks are generally lower—anywhere from 10 to 40 percentile points lower—than

those on other tests that use national norms. The schools that use the ISEE are familiar with

ISEE scores and the group of students taking the ISEE. You may wish to check with the

school(s) to which you are applying to learn the range of ISEE scores expected for applicants

to their school(s).

How soon will I receive my student’s scores?

Your student will receive his or her scores on an Individual Student Report (ISR) by mail in

approximately seven to ten business days after the exam.

What is the raw score?

A raw score represents the number correct. If a student got 23 items correct—say on a test of

40 questions—then the raw score is simply 23.

What does the scaled score mean?

A scaled score is a raw score that has been converted to a different numerical scale, for

example, 200–800. The raw score scale ranges from 0–maximum score, while the scaled

score range consists of higher numbers with a somewhat arbitrary minimum and maximum

score. The range of scaled scores on the ISEE is 760–940.

To whom is my student being compared on his or her score report?

As stated previously, your student is compared only to other independent school applicants

who have applied to the same grade during the past three years. There is no comparison

specifically to other students who took the test at the same test site or to other applicants who

tested on the same day.
