Students in the Los Angeles area have multiple test dates and locations to choose from for the paper test, including Sundays. Computer-based tests are administered at a Prometric Test Center (locations include Culver City and Glendale) or through a test-at-home program with an online proctor. Most students will take the test twice – once in October or November, and once more in December or January in time for their individual school deadlines.
Los Angeles is home to several competitive schools, such as Harvard-Westlake, Marlborough, and Pasadena Polytechnic. While test scores are just one factor in the admissions process, most students who get into these schools score in the top stanines (7-9). Fortunately, Los Angeles has many schools to choose from that work with students at all levels, so any student can find a good-fit school. For those hoping to gain entrance to a highly selective school, however, a top ISEE score only helps the application.
LA Tutors offers free diagnostic tests for current and potential clients, along with full-length practice tests for clients. You can sign up for the diagnostic here: Diagnostic ISEE Registration. You can take practice tests at home with our free proctored videos, where a recorded proctor will time your sections, announce remaining time, and coordinate breaks: Proctored ISEE Practice Test Videos
