The Primary 2 Level exam takes 53 minutes. The Primary 3 Level exam takes 54 minutes. The Primary 4 Level exam takes 1 hour. The Lower Level exam takes 2 hours and 20 minutes. The Middle and Upper Level exams each take 2 hours and 40 minutes. 

Each school chooses their own test date. ISEE test dates, locations, and registration information can be found by visiting http://erblearn.org/parents/admission/isee/registration. 

ISEE test dates may vary but students may register to take the ISEE once per the following testing periods: 

• Fall (August – November) 
• Winter (December – March) 
• Spring/Summer (April – July)

No points are deducted for incorrect or omitted answers. Speed of completion does not affect scoring for any section. The raw score is simply the total number of correct answers. 

Raw scores are converted into scaled scores to account for differences in test difficulty across administrations. The ISEE is scored on a scale from 760 to 940. Scaled scores are determined using tables produced by the test maker. Scaled scores are then compared to a 3-year rolling average of scores from students of the same grade level nationally. 

Program percentiles compare individual students to peers of the same age and grade who have taken the ISEE. 

• ISEE scores between the 50th and 74th percentiles are considered "barely above average." 
• ISEE scores at or above the 75th percentile are "very strong." 

A student who normally scores above the 50th percentile on other standardized tests may score below the 50th percentile on the ISEE. Students who typically score above the 90th percentile can end up with barely above-average ISEE results. This reflects the highly competitive applicant pool taking the ISEE. 

ISEE essays are not scored. They are forwarded to designated schools for individual review by admissions committees. The essays provide insight into the students' writing abilities. 

ISEE score reports are released to the schools, consultants, and organizations specified during registration. Scores remain valid for one academic year. Admissions requirements vary by school - contact your preferred schools directly for details.

TASC test questions require the understanding of broad concepts and generalizations rather than the ability to recall facts, details, or precise definitions. The TASC uses practical and realistic settings in test questions, which adults will recognize and are relevant to adults' lives.

The total TASC testing time is approximately 7 hours and 25 minutes. Individuals typically take the four test sections over two or three consecutive days.

The GED test questions require the understanding of broad concepts and generalizations, rather than the ability to recall facts, details, or precise definitions. The GED uses practical and realistic settings in test questions, which adults will recognize and are relevant to adults' lives.

Individuals typically take the four test sections over two or three consecutive days or over two consecutive weekends. The total GED testing time is approximately 7 hours and 25 minutes.

Students must create an account and register online at www.GED.com or call 1-877-EXAM-GED.

Because the GED is taken on the computer, it is scored electronically.

The ASVAB is intended for both men and women who plan to enlist in any of the five branches of the Armed Services — Army, Navy, Marine Corps, Air Force, and Coast Guard. The ASVAB is not the only requirement for enlistment. Those planning to enlist should also consider all other enlistment requirements, in addition to the ASVAB:

What content is tested on the ASVAB and what are the different test sections? Each branch of the U.S. Armed Services uses the ASVAB scores to determine the qualifications of people for enlistment and placement within military occupational programs. The ASVAB consists of eight subject areas, known as sub-tests.

The ASVAB is approximately 3 hours and 20 minutes in length.

To register, speak to a high school guidance counselor or contact the local military recruiter. There is no cost for this examination. You can find more information on test dates, locations, and registration by visiting www.military.com/ASVAB.

You may retake the ASVAB according to certain rules. ASVAB scores are valid for 2 years from the test date. If you have taken the ASVAB within the last 2 years, the following rules apply:

In addition, if you take the ASVAB for enlistment purposes and your most recent score is more than 20 points higher than your score on another ASVAB from within the last 6 months, you must complete a confirmation test.

Your ASVAB Score Report will include the following:

The following table indicates what each Career Exploration Score measures:

Percentile scores indicate your standing in relation to a national sample of test-takers and demonstrate your strengths and weaknesses in each area. Percentile scores are used to understand your ability in one area over another. Your composite score will indicate your ability to perform specific functions within the Armed Services. Each branch of the Armed Services establishes its own minimum passing score requirements.

The Armed Forces Qualification Test, or AFQT, consists of the following four sections from the Armed Services Vocational Aptitude Battery (ASVAB): Word Knowledge, Paragraph Comprehension, Arithmetic Reasoning, and Mathematics Knowledge. The scores from these four sections make up the Military Entrance Score, which is also known as the AFQT. The AFQT score is used to determine your eligibility for entrance into the Armed Services, as well as your training potential with the Armed Services.

The AFQT score is computed as follows:

Mathematically, this is computed as: AFQT = 2VE + MK + AR.

The AFQT Raw Score is then converted into a Percentile Score to determine your eligibility. This Percentile Score is compared to the scores of a national sample of other test takers, ages 18 to 23. Your percentile score lets you know how well you scored compared to these other test takers.

AFQT scores are ranked in categories. AFQT Category I tend to represent those who are above average in trainability; and Category V tends to represent those who are extremely low in trainability. Individuals scoring in Category V are generally not permitted entrance into the military.

For more information on the AFQT, please visit http://www.military.com/join-armed-forces/asvab/joining-the-military-it-starts-with-the-asvab.html.

Most Regents Exams are structured in two parts. Part 1 is typically a multiple-choice section, usually between 30 and 50 questions. Part 2 is typically a long answer or essay section, where work must be shown.

Regents exams are administered at the student's high school. Test dates are typically in January, June, and August, although not all schools offer the August tests. Most students take Regents Exams in June of their sophomore and junior years. If a student does not pass a Regents Exam, he or she may retake that exam as many times as needed. For example, a student who fails the U.S. History exam in June of their junior year may take the exam again that August. However, if this exam is not offered in his area in August, he or she must wait until January of their senior year to retake the exam.

Regents Exams are given a scaled score based on the number of questions the student answered correctly, the level of difficulty of each question, and the skills each question measures. The minimum passing score is a scaled score of 65, and the minimum score for passing with distinction is a scaled score of 85.

The HSPT is approximately 2 hours and 30 minutes in length.

The HSPT is administered twice each year, once in the spring and once in the fall. HSPT test dates, locations, and registration information are handled through individual schools. You can find more information by visiting http://www.ststesting.com/hp_1.html.

The HSPT may be taken twice. However, the test-maker, STS, records if a student takes the test twice. The lower of the two scores is accepted.

Each HSPT multiple-choice question presents four or five answer choices. For each HSPT multiple-choice question that the student answers correctly, the student receives one point. There is no penalty for incorrect answers or for omitted answers. Student speed in completing each HSPT section is not considered in scoring. Correct, incorrect, and omitted answers are tallied for each test section to produce a raw score. The total number of questions answered correctly is the raw score.

Raw scores are then converted into scaled scores using a formula used to compensate for any differences in difficulty from test to test. The HSPT scaled scores range from 200 to 800. The scales come from specific tables produced by the test maker. Once scores are converted to scaled scores, they can be compared with the scores of students of the same grade level across the country. Scaled score performance is then rated as partially proficient, proficient, and advanced proficient, measured by percentiles ranging from 1 to 99.

HSPT Score Reports are released to the schools, educational consultants, and education organizations that the student selects on the registration form. Scores remain active for one academic year. The scores required for admissions vary by school. Contact the schools directly for admissions information.

The ACT is 3 hours and 35 minutes in length (3 hours and 35 minutes if the optional writing portion is being taken).

• 45 Minutes for English
• 60 Minutes for Math
• 35 Minutes for Reading
• 35 Minutes for Science
• 40 Minutes for Writing (optional)

ACT dates, locations, and registration information can be found by visiting ACT.org.

Many students take the ACT twice, first in their junior year, then again in their senior year. You should consider retesting if you had any issues during your first test, such as an illness or misunderstanding of test directions, or if you don’t feel your initial ACT scores accurately reflect your abilities. If you take the test more than once, you decide which set of scores are sent to colleges or scholarship programs.

Each section of the ACT (English, Math, reading and science, is scored on a scale from 1 to 36. The scores for all four sections are averaged to give the students an overall composite ACT score between 1 and 36.

The optional writing portion of the test receives five scores: a single subject-level Writing Score and four separate Domain Scores, each on a scale of 2-12.

The scores are based on the number of correct answers. There are no penalties for incorrect answers. Each college and university sets its own ACT score requirements for admission into that school. Check with the schools you are interested in applying to in order to determine the ACT score you need to achieve. You can decide which ACT scores are sent to prospective schools.

In general, most ACT multiple-choice scores, including the Composite score, are posted to your online student Web account (through ACT) within two weeks after the test date. If you’ve taken the writing portion of the ACT, you will be notified when that score is available.

The SSAT is 2 hours and 35 minutes in length.

For additional information on SSAT test dates, locations, and registration, please visit www.ssat.org.

You can take the SSAT on all eight test dates within a calendar year.

Each SSAT multiple-choice question has five answer choices. Students receive one point for each correct answer. Students are penalized for incorrect answers, with a deduction of ¼ point from the student’s score for each incorrect answer. Students are not penalized for omitted answers. Speed in completing each SSAT section is not considered in scoring. Correct, incorrect, and omitted answers are tallied for each test section to produce a raw score. Raw scores are then converted into scaled scores, using a formula used to compensate for any differences in difficulty from test to test. The scales come from specific tables produced by the test maker. Once scores are converted to scale scores, they can be compared with the median scores of students of the same grade level across the country.

SSAT Writing Samples are not factored into the student's score report. Instead, the Writing Samples are forwarded to the same schools that will receive the student's SSAT score report. Admissions committees from each school will individually assess the applicant’s writing capabilities.

SSAT Score Reports are released to the schools, educational consultants, and education organizations that you select on your registration form. Scores remain active for one academic year. The scores required for admissions vary by school. Contact the schools directly for admissions information.

You can register your child online and receive an immediate confirmation email by going here.

AP Exams are graded by the College Board on a scale of 1 to 5, with the following criteria for performing in that subject at the college level:

• No recommendation
• Possibly qualified
• Qualified
• Well qualified
• Extremely well qualified

Most colleges require a score of at least a 3 to grant college credit. Some will accept a score of 2, while many of the more competitive colleges and universities require a 4 or 5 before granting credit.

Typically, SAT Subject Tests are offered on the same dates as the regular SAT, and you may take up to three SAT Subject Tests in one day. You may not take the SAT and an SAT Subject Test on the same date. The Language with Listening tests usually are given only once a year, typically in November. If you are taking more than one test on any date, the Language with Listening test is administered first. Only one Language with Listening test may be taken per test date.

You can register online for SAT subject tests by visiting https://sat.collegeboard.org/register.

In general, SAT Subject Test scores are available online approximately 19 days after a test date. SAT score reports are mailed out approximately 27 days after a test date. Scores by phone are released according to the same schedule as scores by web, but College Board charges an additional fee for this service.

SAT Subject Tests can be taken multiple times. It is generally recommended that you not take any one test more than twice.

The PSAT is composed of three parts: Reading and Writing, and Math, with a total possible score of 1520. It is 2 hours and 45 minutes long.

The PSAT is offered once a year, in the Fall. A student can take the PSAT in the 9th, 10th and/or 11th grade, and can only qualify for scholarships with the 11th grade score. The PSAT/NMSQT® is offered in the fall to students in 10th and 11th grade and may qualify for scholarships with their 11th grade score.

Although both tests are structured very similarly, they serve two different purposes. The PSAT is not used for college admissions, but it can produce recognition and scholarships for students with the highest scores. Taking the PSAT provides practice and helps students get a sense for taking the SAT, which is used for college admissions.

Each area of the PSAT (Evidence-based Reading & Writing and Math) is scored on a scale from 160 to 760. The scores for the two areas are combined to produce an overall PSAT scaled score of 320-1520.

Begin by getting your child focused on the task in front of him or her, perhaps beginning with a short conversation or some easy problems.  Remove the barriers that get in the way of concentrating on math.  It’s difficult to concentrate if he or she doesn’t know the basics.  For example, he or she may not have mastered number facts, has weak computational skills, doesn’t know math vocabulary, or doesn’t grasp basic concepts.

If your child is focused and knows the basics, add explanations when you believe they are needed; otherwise, let your child work through the problems on his or her own.   Throughout, encourage questions.  Learn more about how you can help your child with math challenges.

A tutor can help students understand their subject and excel in school.  Here are some signs that your child may need a tutor:  Grades are slipping or you notice a decline (either gradual or sudden) in test scores in subjects that depend heavily on reading.  If your child puts off projects or postpones homework, this procrastination may be a sign of a larger issue, especially if a child ignores repeated reminders.  Your child is repeatedly puzzled by certain concepts, repeatedly expresses anxiety about a test, or is defensive when you try to help.  Read the full list of signs that tell you when it is time to look for a reading tutor.

Absolutely!  It’s a great aid in helping your child retain what he or she learned during the school year.  And, for those students who underperformed, it’s a wonderful way to help prepare for the upcoming grades.  Review these summer learning strategies to help your child continue learning during summer break.

Our tutors have degrees from four-year colleges, plus either state or Huntington certification. Centers are accredited by either Middle States Association or Western Association of Schools and Colleges – the same organizations that accredit the vast majority of U.S. schools.

Of course, if you wish!  However, we have found that the best way to communicate tutoring needs is to meet with our Center Director or other full-time staff.  Here’s the reason:  the tutor knows a limited amount of information – which items the student is using and her or his performance on them.  The staff know this same information – in great detail – plus all of the information you and your child’s teachers and others shared with them.  They are in the best position to make improvements to the tutoring program and to discuss how you and school personnel can help your child.

This depends on your and the tutor’s schedule.  We can help guide you in selecting a schedule to insure your child has the same tutor.  However, because of our systems and procedures, each tutor knows your child’s complete tutoring history and is equally capable of providing outstanding experiences and improvements.

After the academic evaluation (which identifies academic strengths and weaknesses), we discuss its results with you during an initial conference.  During our meeting, we schedule tutoring sessions and discuss payment.  We have competitive hourly rates and offer flexible payment options.

Yes! We have about 300 Huntington Learning Centers conveniently located across the country.

We tutor all grades, kindergarten through grade 12, plus adults, in study skills, reading, phonics, spelling, vocabulary, elementary through advanced math, and science, and more. We prep for the SAT, ACT, GED, ASVAB, PARCC, HSPT, ISEE, state exams, and more.

Yes!  We tutor ADHD students in all areas.  Although we don’t diagnose disabilities, we can help students with disabilities make great progress.

Our unique approach to tutoring includes: highly reliable assessments that evaluate strengths and weaknesses, tailored tutoring programs that are unique to each child’s learning style, and communication with parents. When this approach, we give your child the best opportunity at results. See our proven results.

Progress!  Our students make great progress in a short period of time.  For example, second graders threatened with retention can make so much progress that they avoid retention and, in fact, excel in third grade.  Middle schoolers facing an increase in more complex assignments can strengthen their foundational skills that will help them in high school and beyond. High schoolers who need help with specific subjects – or improved study skills – can begin excelling in class.  When prepping for the SAT or ACT, expect outstanding improvements, where we average 229 points and 5.4 points, respectively.

No contract! You can stop anytime!

Some warning signs: difficulty getting started, sloppy homework, and overall disorganization. Other signs: personality change, diminished self-esteem, or a lack of interest in learning. Learn more on this topic: https://huntingtonhelps.com/resources/blog/5-signs-child-needs-tutoring.

Working with a tutor can be beneficial to your child by: strengthening academic skills, mastering new concepts, preparing for an exam, and building crucial study habits for academic success in school and life.

The initial evaluation gives us the answers. The evaluation is a number of multi-disciplinary assessments to identify academic pain points. It answers where and why your child is struggling.  It allows us to build a roadmap, a personalized learning plan. The plan identifies the total number of hours needed for success. Then together we develop a weekly tutoring schedule. Knowing the total hours and your schedule, we can tell you how long the program will take.

We typically recommend at least twice a week.  During the summer we typically recommend three or more times a week.  In general, your schedule helps determine how quickly your child begins excelling in school.

Because we want to help every child achieve their academic goals and succeed in school, we recommend following the tutoring schedule determined by the evaluation.

Third-party research overwhelmingly supports tutoring as the very best educational option.  See our research and proven results on why tutoring works. Our research plus research done by others says we’re the best.  This includes research done by the Chicago Public Schools, The Los Angeles Unified School District, the Indiana DOE, and others. Policy Studies Associates studied our data and determined students who participated in the Huntington Learning Center program found a positive relationship between tutoring and academic proficiency.  We get great results, because all our tutoring is tailored specifically to your student’s academic needs.

While they may share the same schedule, they don’t share the same personalized lesson plan.  We develop this plan based on your input and the initial evaluation.  We update it based on your child’s progress and performance.  This is true personalization to help guarantee the best outcome for each child.

While we do not assign homework, if your child is being tutored for academic skills, we do assign homework if we are prepping for the SAT, ACT, or a state or standardized exam.

No, when we assign homework, your child should complete it independently.

Absolutely! With your permission we will discuss your child’s academic needs and progress with his or her teachers, school personnel, and other professionals.  In fact, we recommend it as a means to help them understand why your child has become such a different individual – it’s because of the skills, confidence, and motivation he or she is gaining from Huntington tutoring.

Since tutors can be tremendously influential in your child’s life – and the life of everyone in the family – pick with care.  Seek an individual or organization – such as Huntington – that devotes full-time to tutoring students.  Check the recommendations of others.  See website for our glowing recommendations. Talk and meet with the staff to verify their professionalism. While your child is being tutored, meet frequently to get updates.  Ensure the organization is accredited.  Most likely, Huntington is accredited by the same organization that accredits your school.
