Quizard is a complete SSAT prep academy in your pocket — built for Upper Level (applying to grades 9–12), with math, analogies, synonyms, and reading. It was founded and is run by middle schoolers who scored in the top 2% in America. We built the app we wished existed: no ads, no investors, and practice data that stays on your device. THE DIAGNOSTIC FINDS THE GAPS Start with a 52-question diagnostic. Quizard builds your Knowledge Map — every topic rated, strengths and gaps side by side — and it keeps updating with every question you answer, in every mode. REAL TEST, REAL SCORING Take timed practice tests scored the way the SSAT actually works: five answer choices, a quarter-point penalty for wrong answers (so blank vs. guess is a real decision), a 500–800 scaled score curved like the real thing, and your estimated percentile among real test takers. The full Real SSAT simulation runs four timed sections with a 1500–2400 composite. SAGE — A TUTOR WHO HAS SEEN EVERY QUESTION YOUR KID ANSWERED A chatbot gives generic advice. Sage has seen every question your kid answered — every miss, every streak, every timed section — and coaches from that. Ask why you keep missing ratio problems and Sage looks at YOUR last twenty misses before answering. On the Tutor tiers, Sage builds a pinned week plan from your actual gaps, debriefs every practice test, and coaches your practice essays. COURSES YOU ACTUALLY FINISH Six courses from Foundations to Summit Problems, each ending in a Course Exam. Pass it and the crest goes on your profile — a finish line, not an endless scroll. MAKE IT A SPORT Race friends head-to-head in real-time math duels. Climb the rated ladder into the hidden Obsidian League. Join Arena hours and scheduled bracket tournaments — seeded by rating, with a live bracket view. Win the Monthly Championship and your name goes on the Wall of Champions. Forever. STUDY MODES FOR EVERY MOOD Adaptive Study that meets you at your level - Daily Challenge streaks - Clock sprints - Survival runs - Review Misses with spaced repetition - Verbal drills - Scratch paper included. FOR PARENTS A weekly Score Report shows what schools care about: estimated score trend, percentile, topic mastery, and time on task. No jargon, no dashboard maze. Family plan covers up to 6 kids, each with their own account and progress. PLANS Quizard is free to start: study modes, Daily Challenge, the diagnostic and Knowledge Map, online races, one full practice test, and Sage chats every day.
