About

Test prep shouldn't feel like a second exam.

GTS Academics helps families prepare for the HSPT, the entrance exam most Catholic high schools use. Our goal is simple: make real, focused practice easy to get to, so a student walks into test day knowing what to expect. The HSPT is learnable, and what most students need is a calm place to practice it under real conditions.

What we do

We build free, full-length HSPT practice tests, timed at the official pace and scored instantly, with an explanation for every question. Alongside them are plain-English guides covering the test, scoring, and how to prepare. Everything is built on the official Scholastic Testing Service format.

Who is behind GTS

GTS Academics was founded by Rick Garretson. The practice tests and guides are produced by the GTS Academics team, built on the official STS format and reviewed for accuracy before they go live.

What we believe

• Practice beats content. Familiarity with format and pacing moves scores faster than any vocabulary list.
• Feedback should be immediate. You learn most in the minutes right after finishing a test.
• Focus is a feature. No ads, no popups, no gimmicks.
