If you are about to take the SSAT exam STOP! Buy this book immediately! It was the best thing that I did, when I went into the exam I felt as though I had already seen the paper! This was my only preparation for the exam, unlike many other of my friends who went to expensive tutors....... I was the only one who got ranked in the 97th percentile and now I am going to Phillips Academy/Andover! Thank you Princeton Review!

This book helped me prepare for the middle level ISEE, but for anybody that really wants to study and cram, I would reccomend for you to buy as many books as possible, though this should be your first.

I used this book to get ready for the SSAT. It helped alot and when I took the test, I knew exactly what to expect.
A Family Apart by Joan Lowery Nixon
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 25 years ago
A Family Apart is one of my favorite books. The main conflict is that a mother can't support her children and makes a decision to give them away. The five children are the antagonists and don't want to leave their mother. The mother is the protagonist and believes it is for the best that they are to be given away. The setting first starts off in New York but most of the story takes place on their journey to the west. I thought this book gave a realistic look at what life is like for orphans. I didn't like that all of the children were separated from each other. I would definitely recommend this book to eighth grade students. It is very suspenseful and exciting. I would also recommend this book to teachers. It takes place at a very interesting time in history and is very descriptive.
Great study guide.

I recommend this book for anyone taking the SSAT OR ISEE, because the book is organized very well so that you're not studying the ISEE section if you're taking the SSAT and vice versa. The book also teaches its material easily and effectively. However, some of the answers in the answer key are wrong.
