While ISEE and SSAT serve very similar purpose with similar test structure and content, there are still some major difference between these two test. Should you take ISEE or SSAT? That's a big question? First, we compare ISEE and SSAT for you in detail.

	ISEE	SSAT

Purpose	For admission assessment to independent schools	For admission assessment to independent schools

Shows only 3 scores, combining 2 math sections together Won't show to the recipient schools how many times you take the test Won't show to the recipient schools what other schools you send the report to.

The major differences between ISEE and SSAT lie in scoring, content, guessing strategy, and test dates, as you can see from the above comparison table.
You might want to consider the followings when deciding which test to go.

Which test(s) is accepted by the school(s) you are applying to?
What's your strength? If you are good at math, ISEE might give you some advantages by showing both math sections individually.
How often you'd like to take the test?
Are the test seat available? Would the test date match your application deadline?

However, as the decision of which schools to apply to, to take either ISEE or SSAT is very personal and depends on a number of factors. Also keep in mind that neither ISEE nor SSAT is the only factor for your school admission assessment. After reading our ISEE intro, SSAT intro, ISEE FAQ, and SSAT FAQ, we recommend to take the practice tests first to better understand the test format.
