Alle 15 spørgsmål i overblik

Vil du hellere læse, før du går i gang? Alle spørgsmål i smagsprøven står herunder. Svar og forklaringer er foldet sammen, indtil du åbner dem.

1. 1. Which word is closest in meaning to EQUIVOCAL?

   • A. Honest
   • B. Balanced
   • C. Hostile
   • D. Ambiguous
   Vis svar og forklaring

   Svar: D. Ambiguous

   Equivocal describes something that can be read more than one way, so it is unclear or ambiguous. Balanced is a trap because it shares the root idea of equal, but it means evenly weighted, not unclear.

2. 2. Choose the word that best completes the sentence. The expedition's supplies were so ______ that the team had to ration water for the last three days.

   • A. scant
   • B. abundant
   • C. superfluous
   • D. decorative
   Vis svar og forklaring

   Svar: A. scant

   The clue is that the team had to ration water, which only makes sense if there was too little. Scant means barely enough. Abundant and superfluous both mean too much, and decorative says nothing about quantity.

3. 3. Choose the pair that best completes the sentence. Although reviewers were ______ in their praise of the film's photography, they were ______ about its slow, confusing plot.

   • A. restrained ... delighted
   • B. reluctant ... disappointed
   • C. lavish ... dismissive
   • D. eager ... hopeful
   Vis svar og forklaring

   Svar: C. lavish ... dismissive

   The word although signals a contrast, and the plot is described as slow and confusing, so the second word must be negative. Lavish praise set against a dismissive view of the plot fits both clues. Reluctant and disappointed would not contrast, and delighted or hopeful cannot describe a confusing plot.

4. 4. Select all the words that mean nearly the same as FLEETING.

   Vælg alle, der passer.

   • A. Brief
   • B. Lasting
   • C. Transient
   • D. Constant
   • E. Passing
   Vis svar og forklaring

   Svar: A. Brief, C. Transient, E. Passing

   Fleeting describes something that does not last. Brief, transient and passing all carry that meaning. Lasting and constant are the opposite.

5. 5. Column A: 3/8 of 40. Column B: 25% of 60. Which statement is true?

   • A. The quantity in Column A is greater.
   • B. The quantity in Column B is greater.
   • C. The two quantities are equal.
   • D. The relationship cannot be determined from the information given.
   Vis svar og forklaring

   Svar: C. The two quantities are equal.

   Three eighths of 40 is 3 times 5, which is 15. A quarter of 60 is also 15. Both columns have the same value, so the answer is that they are equal.

6. 6. x is a whole number greater than 1. Column A: x squared. Column B: 2x. Which statement is true?

   • A. The quantity in Column A is greater.
   • B. The quantity in Column B is greater.
   • C. The two quantities are equal.
   • D. The relationship cannot be determined from the information given.
   Vis svar og forklaring

   Svar: D. The relationship cannot be determined from the information given.

   Test more than one value. If x is 2, both columns are 4, so they are equal. If x is 3, Column A is 9 and Column B is 6, so Column A is greater. Two different results mean the relationship cannot be determined. On quantitative comparisons with a variable, one test value is never enough.

7. 7. The length of a rectangle is doubled and its width is cut in half. Compared with the original rectangle, the area of the new rectangle is:

   • A. The same
   • B. Half as large
   • C. Twice as large
   • D. Four times as large
   Vis svar og forklaring

   Svar: A. The same

   Area is length times width. Doubling one factor and halving the other multiplies the area by 2 times one half, which is 1. This is a typical reasoning item: you can solve it with a rule and no numbers. Trying a 4 by 6 rectangle gives the same answer, 24, before and after.

8. 8. Complete the sentence.

   Five numbers have an average of 12. When one number is removed, the other four have an average of 10. The number that was removed is _____.

   Muligheder for felt 1: 16, 18, 20, 22

   Vis svar og forklaring

   Svar: 20

   Five numbers that average 12 add up to 60. Four numbers that average 10 add up to 40. The number removed is the difference, 60 minus 40, which is 20.

9. 9. Read the passage: "When the textile mill in Alderbrook closed in 1987, most residents assumed the town would follow it into decline. Instead, a small group of former workers bought the empty building for one dollar and, over six years, turned it into a market hall with forty stalls. Skeptics predicted that nobody would travel to a town with no highway exit. They were wrong, partly because the founders made a deliberate choice: every vendor had to make or grow what they sold within fifty miles. Shoppers came for the novelty, but they returned because the food tasted fresher and the crafts could not be found elsewhere. Today the market hall employs more people than the mill ever did, and several of its first vendors now run shops on the surrounding streets." Which statement best expresses the main idea of the passage?

   • A. Textile mills closed across the country in the late 1980s.
   • B. A community rebuilt its economy by turning a closed factory into a market built on local goods.
   • C. Highway access decides whether a small town's businesses succeed.
   • D. Former mill workers preferred selling food to working in a factory.
   Vis svar og forklaring

   Svar: B. A community rebuilt its economy by turning a closed factory into a market built on local goods.

   The passage follows one story from the mill closing to a thriving market. The mill closing is only the starting point, the passage never claims highway access decides success, and it says nothing about what the workers preferred.

10. 10. Read the passage: "When the textile mill in Alderbrook closed in 1987, most residents assumed the town would follow it into decline. Instead, a small group of former workers bought the empty building for one dollar and, over six years, turned it into a market hall with forty stalls. Skeptics predicted that nobody would travel to a town with no highway exit. They were wrong, partly because the founders made a deliberate choice: every vendor had to make or grow what they sold within fifty miles. Shoppers came for the novelty, but they returned because the food tasted fresher and the crafts could not be found elsewhere. Today the market hall employs more people than the mill ever did, and several of its first vendors now run shops on the surrounding streets." As used in the passage, the word "deliberate" most nearly means:

    • A. slow
    • B. cautious
    • C. intentional
    • D. accidental
    Vis svar og forklaring

    Svar: C. intentional

    The founders made a deliberate choice by requiring vendors to make or grow their goods nearby. That is a choice made on purpose, so intentional fits. Slow and cautious are other meanings people associate with the word, but they do not fit this sentence, and accidental is the opposite.

11. 11. Read the passage: "When the textile mill in Alderbrook closed in 1987, most residents assumed the town would follow it into decline. Instead, a small group of former workers bought the empty building for one dollar and, over six years, turned it into a market hall with forty stalls. Skeptics predicted that nobody would travel to a town with no highway exit. They were wrong, partly because the founders made a deliberate choice: every vendor had to make or grow what they sold within fifty miles. Shoppers came for the novelty, but they returned because the food tasted fresher and the crafts could not be found elsewhere. Today the market hall employs more people than the mill ever did, and several of its first vendors now run shops on the surrounding streets." Select all the statements that the passage supports.

    Vælg alle, der passer.

    • A. Some shoppers traveled to Alderbrook specifically for the market.
    • B. The market's rules limit where vendors get what they sell.
    • C. The town built a highway exit after the market opened.
    • D. The market hall now provides more jobs than the mill once did.
    • E. Most shoppers visited only once, out of curiosity.
    Vis svar og forklaring

    Svar: A. Some shoppers traveled to Alderbrook specifically for the market., B. The market's rules limit where vendors get what they sell., D. The market hall now provides more jobs than the mill once did.

    The skeptics predicted that nobody would travel to the town and were wrong, so some shoppers did. The fifty mile rule limits where vendors get their goods, and the passage states that the hall employs more people than the mill. Nothing says an exit was built, and the passage says shoppers returned.

12. 12. What is the slope of the line that passes through the points (3, 7) and (7, 10)?

    • A. 4/3
    • B. 3/4
    • C. 3
    • D. 7
    Vis svar og forklaring

    Svar: B. 3/4

    Slope is the change in y divided by the change in x. From (3, 7) to (7, 10), y rises by 3 while x moves 4, so the slope is 3 divided by 4, which is 3/4. The choice 4/3 comes from dividing in the wrong order.

13. 13. Select all the numbers that are prime.

    Vælg alle, der passer.

    • A. 1
    • B. 2
    • C. 51
    • D. 53
    • E. 91
    Vis svar og forklaring

    Svar: B. 2, D. 53

    A prime number has exactly two factors, 1 and itself. The number 1 has only one factor, so it is not prime. The number 2 is prime, and so is 53. The number 51 is 3 times 17, and 91 is 7 times 13.

14. 14. Complete the sentence.

    If 3(x - 4) = 2x + 5, then x = _____.

    Muligheder for felt 1: 15, 17, 19, 21

    Vis svar og forklaring

    Svar: 17

    Distribute the 3 to get 3x - 12 = 2x + 5. Subtract 2x from both sides to get x - 12 = 5, then add 12 to get x = 17. Putting 17 back in gives 3 times 13 on the left and 39 on the right, so it checks.

15. 15. Complete the sentence.

    A bag holds 4 red, 6 blue and 5 green marbles. One marble is picked at random. The probability that it is not blue is _____, and the probability that it is green is _____.

    Muligheder for felt 1: 2/5, 3/5, 2/3, 4/5

    Muligheder for felt 2: 1/5, 2/5, 1/3, 1/2

    Vis svar og forklaring

    Svar: 3/5, 1/3

    There are 15 marbles. Nine are not blue, and 9 out of 15 simplifies to 3/5. Five are green, and 5 out of 15 simplifies to 1/3. Always reduce a probability to lowest terms before you look for it among the choices.

Hvad der er på ISEE

ISEE er Independent School Entrance Exam, en udbredt optagelsesprøve til private og uafhængige skoler. Den udbydes af E3n, den nonprofitorganisation der er opstået ved sammenlægningen af Educational Records Bureau (ERB) og Enrollment Management Association, så ældre forberedelsesbøger og guider siger stadig ERB. Til ansøgere til 5. til 12. klasse findes der tre niveauer. Lower Level er til 5. eller 6. klasse, Middle Level til 7. eller 8. klasse og Upper Level til 9. til 12. klasse. Denne side følger Upper Level, og tallene nedenfor kommer fra den officielle ISEE Quick Facts Guide for 2026 til 2027 og ERB's guide til Upper Level. Middle Level har det samme antal spørgsmål og de samme tider, Lower Level er kortere, og yngre ansøgere tager separate Primary Levels, så tjek iseetest.org for dit.

Upper Level har fire multiple choice-dele og et essay, altid i samme rækkefølge. Verbal tænkning har 40 spørgsmål på 20 minutter: synonymer og sætningsafslutninger med ét manglende ord eller et par ord. Kvantitativ tænkning har 37 spørgsmål på 35 minutter: tekstopgaver og kvantitative sammenligninger, hvor du afgør, hvilken af to størrelser der er størst, om de er lige store, eller om oplysningerne ikke rækker. Læseforståelse har 36 spørgsmål på 35 minutter, seks til hver af seks tekster. Matematik har 47 spørgsmål på 40 minutter og dækker regneoperationer, algebra, geometri, måling, dataanalyse og sandsynlighed. Essayet varer 30 minutter.

Nogle spørgsmål i hver multiple choice-del er uscorede testspørgsmål til fremtidige prøver, og du kan ikke se, hvilke. De officielle guider siger, at der ikke er straf for et forkert svar, så besvar hvert spørgsmål. Essayet scores ikke, men de skoler, du angiver som modtagere af scorer, får en kopi. Resultaterne rapporteres som percentilrang med skalascorer og stanines, sammenlignet med andre elever i dit klassetrin, som søger ind på uafhængige skoler.

Sådan bruger du smagsprøven

De 15 spørgsmål følger den rigtige rækkefølge, så du møder den samme omstilling i tankegangen, som den rigtige prøve kræver. Spørgsmål 1 til 4 er verbal tænkning, 5 til 8 er kvantitativ tænkning, 9 til 11 er læseforståelse og 12 til 15 er matematik. De tre læsespørgsmål deler en kort tekst, som StudyPDF-teamet har skrevet, så hvert spørgsmål gentager den. Alle de andre spørgsmål er også skrevet af teamet. Ingen er en officiel ISEE-opgave. Den rigtige ISEE har fire svarmuligheder på hvert spørgsmål, hvoraf præcis én er rigtig, så opgaverne med vælg alle der passer og udfyld det tomme felt her er ekstra øveformater.

Tag den i ét stræk uden noter og uden lommeregner, for det tillader den rigtige prøve ikke. Læs så forklaringen til hvert spørgsmål, også dem du svarede rigtigt på. Sortér dine fejl efter del. En fejl på en kvantitativ sammenligning og en fejl på en tekstopgave er to forskellige problemer: det første handler om at afprøve nogle få værdier, før du beslutter dig, og det andet om at finde den regel, opgaven skjuler.

ERB udgiver sin egen guide til Upper Level med en fuld øveprøve og facit. Brug denne smagsprøve til at finde dine svage dele, og tag så den officielle øveprøve under tidspres.

Sådan bygger StudyPDF ISEE-øvelser ud fra dit eget materiale

Femten spørgsmål kan vise dig, hvilken del der kræver arbejde. De kan ikke gøre dig klar alene, og en generisk spørgsmålsbank ved ikke, hvilken ordliste din tutor har givet dig, eller hvilket matematikkapitel din skole er nået til.

StudyPDF tager udgangspunkt i det materiale, du kommer med. Upload din ISEE-forberedelsesbog, dine ordlister, dine matematiknoter eller øvehæftet fra et kursus. Tryk derefter på Nyt materiale, vælg en øveprøve eller flashcards, vælg de filer som kilder, og bestem, hvor lang den skal være. Du får en prøve skrevet ud fra præcis de sider, og hver forklaring henviser til, hvor svaret kommer fra. Lav en ny, når du vil, eller snæver den ind til ét område som sætningsafslutninger eller algebra. Bo, studieagenten, forklarer ethvert svar, du fik forkert, og dine resultater bidrager til et billede af, hvilke begreber du bliver ved med at misse.

Du behøver ikke et dokument for at komme i gang. Nævn i stedet et emne, for eksempel kvantitative sammenligninger eller ordforråd i sammenhæng, så får du en øveprøve om det med de samme forklaringer. Det er gratis at starte.
