High School Entrance Exams are standardized tests that students take to gain admission to high schools, particularly private or specialized institutions. These exams assess a student's knowledge and skills in subjects like math, reading, and writing. The results help schools determine if a student is a good fit for their academic programs. Preparation for these exams often includes study guides, practice tests, and tutoring. Many students begin preparing months in advance to improve their chances of success. Schools may also consider other factors, such as grades and interviews, alongside the exam scores during the admission process.
