Digital Practice Exams
Built by City Smarts. Available now.
Mock testing has always been a cornerstone of how we prep students at City Smarts. We think there's no substitute for sitting down with a real exam under real time pressure — it builds endurance, exposes weaknesses, and gives you something concrete to work with. Our digital practice tests bring that same philosophy online. Full-length, timed, and written by our team. Take one on your own, review your score report, and decide where to go from there. We'll be here if you want to talk through it.

How It Works
Make the Most of Your Results
A practice test is only useful if you know what to do with the score. Here's how we think about it.
Take the Test
Full-length, timed, and computer-based — just like the real thing. We think test endurance and pacing are half the battle, so we don't cut corners on format.
Review Your Score Report
You'll get a detailed breakdown by section and content area as soon as you finish. No waiting around — the data is there when you need it.
Find the Gaps
Use your content-area breakdown to figure out where your student is losing points — and where focused prep will move the needle most.
Talk to Us
Every test comes with the option to book a free call with someone from our team. We'll walk through the results with you and help figure out the right next step.
Why City Smarts
Written by the people who teach it
These aren't recycled questions from a test bank. Every exam was built by our team — the same instructors who work with students every week.
Built for the 2026 SHSAT
The SHSAT is going digital adaptive this fall. Our tests are written to reflect that — not last year's format.
Real conditions, no shortcuts
Timed, computer-based, full-length. We believe students should practice the way they'll perform — including the endurance piece.
A score report you can actually use
Overall performance, content-area breakdown, pacing data. The same kind of diagnostic we use with our own students.
A free call to talk through it
Every test — free or paid — comes with the option to book time with one of our instructors to go over what the results mean and what to do next.
Take it further
The test is just the starting point.
A practice test tells you where the gaps are. A City Smarts tutor shows you how to close them. Our instructors work one-on-one to turn diagnostic data into a focused, efficient prep plan — personalized for your student's schedule, strengths, and goals.
