Do Not Just Count Wrong Answers
A raw score is less useful than a pattern. Parents need to know whether the student is missing reading evidence, grammar, algebra setup, geometry, grid-ins, pacing, or careless review habits.
This free tracker gives families a simple way to sort misses after any SHSAT-style practice test. It pairs especially well with the $1.99 summer diagnostic, but it can be used with another practice test too.
Use it the same day your child finishes a practice test. Mark every missed, guessed, and slow question, then look for the two categories that repeat. That turns a vague score into a parent-friendly review plan.
The best summer use case is simple: take one timed diagnostic in June or July, fill out the tracker, then spend the next week practicing only the biggest ELA and Math weak spots instead of downloading another random PDF.
The goal is to make the next practice choice less random: one diagnostic, a clear weak-spot map, then focused daily practice.
This independent practice pack contains original practice questions. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by any test publisher, school district, or testing organization.
