Each year the Johns Hopkins Center for talented youth invites students who meet certain criteria to take college preparatory tests (SAT and ACT)

To qualify for the Talent Search, a student must have scored in the 95th percentile or higher in a single area of the reasoning section of the Terra Nova test and achieved a B+ average in their sixth grade year. Students who qualify are eligible to register for the College Board SAT and the ACT.

Qualified students who apply to the Talent Search will receive test registration materials for the College Board SAT and the ACT. These tests are given as above-grade-level tests to better assess the mathematical and verbal reasoning abilities of highly able students. The Talent Search offers a variety of services and opportunities for students after they test.
