Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: SSAT (Middle) & ISEE (Middle/Lower) Vocabulary Helping you learn hundreds of words quickly with; Fun Cartoons, Synonyms/Antonyms & Sentences for EACH Word! To improve your memory you must increase the number and variety of your mental associations. When you learn new words, make sure you learn them in a context. It is far easier to remember a picture than an abstract concept. So the trick to remember an abstract word, is to turn it into a picture. And..... It is much easier to picture a sentence rather than picture a word in isolation. When you create the picture, make sure it meets one or more of the following criteria so that it 'sticks'. OUT OF PROPORTION - In all your images, try to distort size and shape. You can imagine things much larger than their normal size or conversely, microscopically small. SUBSTITUTION - You could visualise footballers kicking a television around a football pitch instead of a football, or pens growing on a tree instead of leaves. Substituting an out of place item in an image increases the probability of recall. EXAGGERATION - Try to picture a very large quantity in your images. MOVEMENT - Any movement or action is always easy to remember. HUMOUR - The funnier, more absurd and zany you can make your images, the more memorable they will be. Applying multiple combination of these five principles when forming your images will help make your mental associations truly outstanding and memorable. At first, you may find that you need to consciously apply one or more of the five principles in order to make your pictures sufficiently ludicrous. After a little practice however, you should find that applying the principles becomes an automatic and natural process. Some UNIQUE features of this book; -All the hard work done for you.

Download or read book Cracking the SSAT ISEE written by Elizabeth Silas and published by Princeton Review. This book was released on 2000-08-29 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The SSAT/ISEE is taken by 64,607 students per year. There are two levels of SSAT's (Secondary School Admissions Test): a lower level test for grades 5-7, and an upper level test for grade 8 and above. Similarly, the ISEE (Independent School Entrance Exam) is broken down into two such levels. Like the SAT, the SSAT/ISEE tests students on reading comprehension, analogies, sentence completion, synonyms and math skills.The SSAT was created in 1957 and is today required by about 500 schools. The ISEE is much newer, and has recently become the test of choice for member schools of the Independent Schools Association of New York City. An increasing number of schools are accepting ISEE scores as an alternative to the SSAT. The book includes: -- A complete overview of the SSAT/ISEE -- Practice drills for the math and verbal sections, based on actual tests -- Four complete sample tests -- Strategies to find right answers by eliminating wrong ones, recognize traps that trick most students, and tips on how and when to guessThe book explains how the SSAT and the ISEE are scored very differently, and how this difference affects test-taking strategy. Students need to prepare for these exams, as they are as difficult to a grade-schooler as the SAT is to a high school student.
