Solomon Academy's IAAT Practice Tests: Practice Tests for IOWA Algebra Aptitude Test

Useful prep book for the 6th grade Iowa algebra test

We moved to a district in NOVA that requires all incoming seventh graders to take IAAT before enrolling in algebra 1. Our son had already taken pre algebra in his previous district as a 6th grader so he was well prepared for the mathematics. This practice test booklet helped prepare him for the pacing and helped him know what to expect content wise. The practice book covers a wide range of topics and he encountered nothing on the actual placement test that was unfamiliar. He had no issues placing in algebra 1 after spending a week reviewing with this book. Definitely recommended buying this book if your child will be taking IAAT.

I was so happy with this book that I'm buying it a 2nd time. My first child wanted to take Algebra as a 7th grader but had to have over 91% on IAAT test to do so in our NoVA school district. She practiced with this book and wasn't ready at first. After doing many of these practice tests and working through the explanations, she aced the real test. Then went on to get an A in 7th grade Algebra Honors. Now my second kid has to take the IAAT this year and I have decided it is totally worth the money for a clean copy.

I am glad I decided to buy the two books, it did help me structure the test review for my child. I am also grateful I did not end up with a lone sample test as is the case with other books with the same price tag.

My 6th grade son took the IAAT test in Feb 2018 for 7th grade math placement. He just got his results back this week (March 3, 2018) and he got 53 of 60 (4 sections with 15 questions each). That's only an 88% but is still considered really good. His school gave him 5 points out of 5 points for the IAAT portion of his math placement matrix (points from different areas of the matrix - CogAT, ITBS, IAAT, math class grade, etc.) tallies up to determine his 7th grade math placement. He said the questions in the IAAT practice test booklet were harder than the actual test he took. Note that we made him take the sample tests several times over the course of a month or so. Note some kids learn faster than others so that's why we dragged it out over a month for him. This book helped out tremendously. We are in the Dallas/Fort Worth area.

We used Solomon Academy books for IAAT practice test for our son who is in 7th grade. Our ISD administers an IAAT test to qualify students to take Algebra in 8th grade. We liked the quality of the practice tests with solutions. The practice tests are the same as how the test is administered, in terms of, the number of sections, the number of questions in each section, and the time allowed per section. You will know where your kid stands in terms of ability, their knowledge of pre-algebra concepts, and what to expect in the exam.

Exactly what we were looking for. We got this book one week before my daughter had her Algebra Aptitude Test. They take it in our state in six grade. The book has a nice introduction that contains the different subjects you are supposed to know before taking this test. This is very helpful since you can have review each concept before attempting to take the test. This book contains seven full test. Each one of them has four parts, each part is 15 multiple choice questions that should be solved in 10 minutes. after each test, there is a section for solutions which explains the solution for each question. Even if you are not interested in taking the IAAT, I still think it is a great book. Worth the money.

7 practice tests in same format as actual exam. Perfect for practicing timed testing and identifying which concepts your child needs further review. My son completed all 7 tests. His scores on these practice exams (and time to complete) improved with each test. On the 7th test, he scored 90%. There was one reviewer who commented that the practice test was nothing like the actual IAAT exam. My son took the IAAT a couple of weeks ago. He said the format and concepts tested were the same. He also thought the IAAT exam was easier than these practice tests. We received his IAAT results yesterday - he scored 100%. This book was money well spent for us.
