The Club Z! HSAT is an achievement skills test that assesses students in two subject areas: Math and Reading. These scores may be included as a component of a student’s high school application for eligibility and admission to both choice and selective enrollment high school programs. It is administered in the fall.
Preparing for the HSAT with a qualified tutor can help students become familiar with the test format, improve time management, and strengthen problem-solving and reading skills. This preparation can boost confidence and increase the likelihood of achieving scores that support high school admission goals.

Club Z! does NOT recommend, endorse, or provide study guides, test preparation courses, or sample tests/questions for the Club Z! High School Admissions exam. Students engaging with third-party test prep organizations are doing so at their own risk.
A tutorial session will be included at the beginning of the test for students to become familiar with the format of the exam. This tutorial takes approximately ten minutes to complete and is included in the testing session for both Club Z! and Non–Club Z! students.
Students who qualify for DLM-AA are not required to test but may opt to participate.
Students with IEPs or 504 plans that require testing accommodations should verify that such accommodations are in place prior to the testing session. IEPs must be current within one year of the testing session for a student to receive accommodations. If questions arise, the Club Z! Testing team will contact the family prior to testing.
A handful of Club Z! Choice high school programs require auditions or portfolio reviews to be considered. All this information can be found on the school’s profile page and the Club Z! application. Schedule the screening appointment when the Club Z! application is completed.
If a student does not participate in the required admissions process, they will not be considered in the selection process for that school/program.
