Diagnostic Testing

It is hard to understand where you stand among your competing peers in the testing process without knowing what you can actually score on a standardized test. How do you know if you need extra help with test preparation? How do you decide which test to take if you are given the choice? If any of these questions have ever popped into your head, The Princeton Review now has the answers.

Which test is right for me?
Many schools in America provide students with the option of taking one standardized test over another. For students who are applying to undergraduate universities, most colleges now accept the scores from either the ACT or the SAT. And more recently, for students who are interested in going to business schools, there are now a growing number of MBA programs that are accepting GRE General Test scores for admission. In fact, more than 250 MBA programs have signed on so far. And that translates into more options for you!

So before you apply to a school in America, find out what admissions tests your schools will accept, and more importantly, which test you can score the highest in. The best way to determine which standardized test is better suited to your abilities is to get your feet wet with a diagnostic test for each exam. Getting into a top American school is extremely competitive and you do not want to go into an actual standardized test blind sighted.

Does my test score reflect my abilities?

Standardized testing is a very mechanical way to assess students. A lot of the times, its results are not very accurate at reflecting students' true abilities at understanding certain materials. It is hard to know how you would do on a standardized test without actually taking one, which is why a diagnostic test is the very first step of the Princeton Review test preparation courses.

Now The Princeton Review offers diagnostic tests separately. If you are someone who just want to know how well you can perform on a standardized test, and not sure if you need extra preparatory help, we have just the service you need.

Unlike other leading test preparation companies, we spend millions of u.s. dollars every year generating our own test prep materials uniquely to The Princeton Review. We spend a lot of money and effort on making our practice test/diagnostic tests as close to the real exams as possible, so we can help students more accurately predict how they would do on an actual test.

As one of the strongest brands in higher education, The Princeton Review now offers diagnostic tests to students who are interested in taking tests such as SAT, SSAT, GMAT, TOEFL, GRE and LSAT. The diagnostic tests are administered by members of The Princeton Review staff, and the testing environment simulates the one of the actual exam.

Test results are guaranteed to be returned to the student the day after the exam is taken. They are shown in a detailed score report along with comments, suggestions, and other useful tips. When we provide you with your score report, we also offer an hour of free test consultation.
