The ISEE is a key factor in admissions, helping schools compare students from different academic backgrounds through a set of standardized criteria.
Some folks claim that the ISEE is not a big factor when getting into a high school. However, the fact remains that the top schools have high ISEE averages. Your other numbers (GPA for example) not only test how smart you are, but how well you work. The ISEE can be a good indicator of your core skills.
We always stress that it is better to be fully-prepared when applying for your target school, which is why we urge students to study hard and try their best when attempting tests like the ISEE.
What is the ISEE? What is a good score?
