What changed for Fall 2026

All SHSAT articles

The official Fall 2026 SHSAT is computer-adaptive. SHSAT Prep's current full-length exams are fixed-form digital practice for content, timing, tools, and review. Dates and policies belong to NYCPS. Confirm them on the official pages linked in each article.

What one exam looks like

  1. Pick a section order and start the clock.

    50 ELA and 50 Math questions on a shared 180-minute timer. The student chooses which section to open first, just like the real exam.

  2. Work through every digital item type.

    Revising and editing, reading comprehension, ratios, equations, geometry, statistics, probability. Multiple choice, fill-in, and interactive items mixed the way the SHSAT mixes them.

  3. Submit and get the report immediately.

    Raw score, estimated scaled score, time per question, and a question-by-question review with explanations. The student can see which questions cost points and why.
