If 1 is added to the smaller integer and 2 is subtracted from the larger integer, what is the product of the two resulting integers?” The sum of two consecutive integers is -15. These questions below are all from the 2019 SHSAT handbook’s sample exam: Let’s take a look at some of the questions that might necessitate more study than just your “standard” 7th grade math curriculum. Supposedly, the version given to 8th graders only includes math covered by 7th grade standards or “below,” but based on the types of things I’ve seen my students learn in SHSAT prep, I’m doubtful. The second thing I wanted to mention about the SHSAT is the content that’s covered on the exam actually necessitates test prep. (I have a whole post brewing where I’m convinced that much of what we test for with “giftedness” screening is ACTUALLY just “experience” screening). So some of their improved performance in math class may be due to gaining more experience with the math they had to do in school. Never mind the fact that some of these schools ALSO gave the students HW to complete and many students may ALSO go to class after school, during the week as well. Sometimes, they were very familiar with “famous problems’ sophisticated solutions” like the formula for Gaussian addition or the locker problem, which meant they had a mental framework for recognizing when new problems were similar to something they had seen before. Assuming a 4 hour class every Saturday, for about 30 weeks per year, for the 8 years of K-7, that’s an additional 960 hours of math experience. Depending on the teacher and the specific program, some of those students received very procedural-based instruction, but some of them did gain a better depth of understanding or mastery of the content.

Many of my Chinese students told me they went to Saturday School since elementary school where they often learned how to speak Chinese and sometimes where they received additional math instruction. The first thing I want to mention is that I’ve noticed is Saturday School. I noticed several things that I don’t think gets talked about enough in this on-going debate about the Specialized High Schools, so I’m going to talk about some of those issues here. I’ve taught a variety of students in my classes, from a wide variety of backgrounds and prior math experience. I’ve taught 6th, 7th and 8th grade at three different middle schools so far (in my 8 years of teaching) – a new and small school in the Bronx, a large comprehensive middle school in District 2, and a selective, screened middle school in District 2. I have a lot of feelings about the SHSAT, the exam in NYC used to screen students for the specialized high schools.
