Important information about the HSPT for 2021

Recommended Posts

We've been working on our HSPT course lately, and there's a lot of good and new information that's not covered in the popular books for sale on Amazon and other booksellers.

First, please know that many of the free HSPT tests that you can find online are inaccurate and don't represent the kind of material that's actually on the HSPT; some questions are too hard, others too easy, and still others are just way off base and wouldn't appear on the actual HSPT.

Here's an example of one of the more challenging words to show up on the HSPT:

a gossamer structure

a) gauzy
b) sturdy
c) costly
d) colossal

(Tip: Notice that the context in the question stem doesn't give any clues to the meaning of the vocabulary word.)

Answer: Just click below.

Spoiler

Answer: a) gauzy.  gossamer is a cool word, but not used very much. It basically means filmy, like see-through cloth.
