The SelectivePrep program starts with a diagnostic test to pinpoint strengths and weaknesses. Students will have access to supplemental material so they can practice in areas where they need improvement. Students also take a practice test under test conditions before they take “the real thing”. The SelectivePrep program includes:

  • Diagnostic Test. Initial assessment that provides a detailed analysis of individual student strengths/weaknesses.

In the Spring of 2021 CPS decided to eliminate the NWEA/MAP Exam (and any 5th grade achievement test) from its Academic Center Admissions formula. SelectivePrep will not have any 5th grade classes unless this policy changes.
With the elimination of the 5th grade achievement test from admissions, the current Academic Center admissions formula is one half final 5th grade grades and one half test scores from the 6th grade Academic Center Admissions Test.
