What the preview includes
- Five-question rounds across Reading, Written Expression, Mathematics, and Ability.
- Immediate answer feedback with an explanation and a method to reuse.
- XP, stars, levels, and progress based only on work completed in the browser.
- Foundation, challenge, and clearly labeled optional elite levels.
- Mistake replay that returns missed concepts to the next round.
What it does not include
This is not an official or full-length practice test. It is a product sample. It does not reproduce official questions, estimate an official scaled score, predict admission, or represent the duration and balance of the complete exam.
The open game pool contains 137 original items and has passed automated structural and deterministic answer checks. A dispute control on every question lets a family flag anything that needs another look. The optional elite level deliberately stretches past the likely grade-level test scope and is labeled accordingly.
How to use five questions well
- Let the student work independently without pressure to be perfect.
- Read each explanation, including after a correct answer.
- Ask the student to name the rule, evidence, or pattern in their own words.
- Replay mistakes after the set and choose one skill—not five—to revisit.
- Use a new example later to test whether the method transfers.
The four areas in the sample
Reading
Work from the passage, identify the author’s meaning, and support an answer with text evidence.
Written Expression
Recognize clearer, more correct sentence construction and standard English usage.
Mathematics
Use grade-level concepts and organized problem solving rather than answer-only guessing.
Ability
Identify relationships and patterns in verbal or visual-style reasoning formats.
What to do after the preview
If the routine suits your family, reserve the $19.99 one-time launch price. No payment is taken until checkout opens. Meanwhile, use the free eight-week study plan and verify official requirements through the official TACHS handbook.
