Prepare for the high school placement test by exploring nine math, English, and science lectures, with quizzes to assess your readiness and guide your study.
Navigate the number line to master adding and subtracting with positive and negative numbers, decimals, and powers of 10, then practice basic arithmetic without a calculator for test readiness.
Master the easy world of decimals by practicing addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division, learning decimal placement and tenths during the high school placement test prep.
Explore fractions and their many formats, including addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division, with numerator and denominator concepts using visual shading to build readiness for the placement test.
Master percentages in proportion format by solving diverse question types, from five percent problems to percent comparisons, and practice repeatedly for the high school placement test.
Explore the beginning of algebra through the extended number line, mastering operations with negative and positive numbers, and solving basic addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division without calculators.
Part six introduces variables within equations and trains you to solve for x and k across formats like 4x=4, 5/x=20, and 20x/4=7, with practice quizzes.
Explore geometry fundamentals across straight, angular, and round shapes, calculating areas and volumes for rectangles, squares, triangles, circles, and cylinders. Develop skills to identify angles, radii, and straight-line measures.
Identify x and y coordinates, locate the origin, and plot points on the coordinate axes. Practice finding distance and midpoint between given points and identifying cardinal points.
Apply reading comprehension in math to solve rate, time, and distance problems, using algebraic equations and coordinate geometry concepts in practical car-speed scenarios.
This course introduces the student to the test format for the High School Placement Test or HSPT. It breaks down the areas of study and the timing dictated by the exam.
At the end of middle school, most students are required to take an entrance exam in order to evaluate the placement level in the school of their choice. The tests offered might vary slightly, but the information asked is all the same, math never changes and reading comprehension has the same expectations. Parents, students and tutors should work together in order to accomplish this important task of learning. As early as the 6th or 7th grade, students and parents should begin looking at what weaknesses the student has and address them.
This course is broken down into major topics in order to easily identify which area is weak or which area is strong. At the end of each section, a quiz is presented which helps the student grade the level of knowledge. No materials are needed, except for the will to learn and succeed in the High School Placement Test.
The student will learn about how the test is conducted, the amount of questions per section and the total time allowed. This is an important tool because the student will not be surprised about the test format. This small, but important course should take you about a week to complete and from there the student should proceed into preparing for the HSPT. A course like this is necessary because it will highlight important information about your general knowledge.
This is the first step for preparing for the any High School Entrance Exam. This is Part 1
