Book Description

0764127810 978-0764127816 February 1, 2005
This brand-new title replaces Barron's previously published COOP/HSPT test prep manual with all-new study material and practice tests that reflect the COOP and HSPT tests as they are presently given. COOP is the acronym for Cooperative Admissions Exam, and HSPT is short for High School Placement Test. These tests are given as entrance exams at most Catholic high schools across the country. Catholic high schools in the Archdiocese of New York have adopted a slightly different test called TACHS, or Test for Admission to Catholic High Schools. Accordingly, this new manual presents TACHS sample questions and answers that will familiarize students with question types, format, and degree of difficulty. Review questions applicable to all three exams are presented to test students' academic strengths and weak areas. The authors provide two practice COOPs and two practice HSPTs that reflect the most recent exams in question types, length, and degree of difficulty. Practice tests come with answers and explanations.

    4.0 out of 5 stars Great Prep Book, January 19, 2008
    This review is from: How to Prepare for the COOP/HSPT/TACHS (Barron's COOP/HSPT/TACHS) (Paperback)
    This is a great book to prepare for the entry test to Catholic schools. My child used the review questions over and over to get a "feel" for the test questions. She aced the test and received early admission to the school of her choice.
