Resources for Parents

Tools to help your child prepare

Aristotle Circle has prepared practice tests based on a number of the most frequently used childhood assessments. We believe that every family should have the information they need to know what to expect on admission and assessment tests. These practice handouts are designed to give parents a sense of which skills are included on the NNAT, WPPSI, ERB, OLSAT, Stanford-Binet, CogAT and WISC. Contact our office for specific information about the test your child is taking.
