What Is the HSPT?

The High School Placement Test is for grade 8 students applying to Catholic high schools. The HSPT is administered by individual Catholic schools and is typically held in January. Retaking the test isn’t recommended since some schools may or may not accept retake scores – that’s why we give your child the tools to perform their best the first time around.

The HSPT Structure and Testable Knowledge

While the HSPT is similar to the SSAT and ISSE, its structure is different; students have 2 hours and 30 minutes to finish five exam sections: 

  • Verbal 
  • Quantitative 
  • Reading 
  • Mathematics 
  • Language Skills 

Some Catholic schools may also include an additional writing test, as well as three other sections: 

  • Mechanical Aptitude 
  • Science 
  • Catholic Religion 

Your tutor will understand the test format of the Catholic school you’re applying to.

FAQ's

If you have more questions about our HSPT programs, these FAQs will provide the clarity you need!

Do you only focus on HSPT content tutoring?

While we help students learn and retain knowledge to expertly navigate HSPT content, we also focus on helping them develop test-taking strategies they can use in high school, college, and beyond.


Can parents be involved in the HSPT tutoring process?

We welcome parent involvement and always strive to keep students, families, and tutors in the loop with our detailed progress tracker. The tracker allows families to check student progress as they work through their HSPT tutoring program.

How do you match students with an HSPT tutor?

Our matching process ensures students are paired with their best-fit HSPT tutor based on student/family preferences, goals, and needs.

What is the HSPT’s structure?

The HSPT is made up of five timed sections: 60 Verbal Skills questions (16 minutes), 52 Quantitative Skills questions (30 minutes), 62 Reading questions (25 minutes), 64 Mathematics questions (45 minutes), and 40 Language Skills questions (25 minutes).

Where can I learn more about the HSPT?

You can learn more about the HSPT by visiting the HSPT website here.


How do I analyze my scores, and what do the percentile and stanine rankings mean?

The HSPT tests students in Reading, Math, Quantitative Reasoning, and Language. Your percentile rank compares you to all other HSPT test-takers – for example, if you’re in the 75th percentile, you scored higher than 75% of test-takers. You will see a local and national percentile ranking. Stanines are reported on a scale of 1 to 9, and these scores also compare student performance to other students in a simplified way.


Where and when do students take the HSPT?

The HSPT is directly offered by schools – there is no national administration. Test dates can be scheduled from October to January.

Which HSPT tutoring plan is best for my child?

The best plan for your child depends on what you’re looking for from our programs. If you’re unsure which program works best for your child, our expert team is ready to guide you – set up a call with us today to learn more!
