Materials
Official ISEE Prep Materials
The only available official ISEE sample test appears in "What to Expect ..." (see above). Students should take it as a timed "dress rehearsal" shortly before test day.
Princeton Review: Cracking the SSAT & ISEE
Best all-around ISEE prep book. PR ISEE has been known for decades for its excellent strategy, math, vocabulary sections. Two full-length practice tests.
Kaplan: SSAT & ISEE Prep
Great companion to PR ISEE book. Good strategy, math, vocabulary sections complement PR. Two practice tests.
Peterson’s: Master The SSAT & ISEE
Mini-tests for synonyms, analogies, reading, math plus two full-length practice tests make this book the next in line for ISEE prep. If possible, get the 8th edition.
Barron's SSAT/ISEE
Plain vanilla ISEE prep book. Two practice tests. Good ol' "drill & kill" math section. Not tops, but given the dearth of good ISEE practice tests, you may need it.

Last in line. Three more practice ISEE tests, plus additional verbal, math, reading exercises.
