Here’s what your child should expect on the actual OLSAT test:

This year Irvine CA school district is administering OLSAT in August 2018 instead of the usual November month. What is the cost of enrolling to your website to prepare for 5th Grade OLSAT. My son will be entering 5th grade in September 2018. I believe it is Level E.

Aledo,TX ISD is going to use OLSAT testing next month for Gifted & Talented Program. What level I need to prepare my son who will be entering 2nd grade in August 2019? Currently he is a first grader. What is the cost for 1 month subscription? Thanks in advance.

If he’s still in 1st grade he will be taking OLSAT Level B. Please verify with the school. We recommend starting practicing with our OLSAT level A practice test questions to get him used to the problems. After he’s familiar and comfortable with sample questions for Level A, he’ll then be ready for Level B. Keep us posted on how it goes!

I read on here that level E is a 60 minute test, but my daughter took it today and was given 40 minutes. How long is level E supposed to be given?

Thank you for reaching out with your concern regarding the OLSAT (Otis-Lennon School Ability Test) Level E testing duration. I apologize for any confusion caused by the information you’ve encountered.

The OLSAT Level E test, designed for 4th and 5th-grade students, consists of 72 questions. The recommended testing time for Level E is approximately 40 minutes. This should provide sufficient time for students to complete the test without feeling too rushed.

It seems there might have been a discrepancy in the information you’ve read, but rest assured that the testing duration your daughter experienced was appropriate for the OLSAT Level E assessment.

See if TestingMom.com supports your child’s test by your school district. If you don't see your child's school district listed, check with us! We have practice for other tests as well.
