Official facts
Current format, navigation, timing, accommodations, and admissions claims are tied to authoritative source records with verification dates. Policy changes create a new exam-policy version instead of silently changing old attempts.
Original educational content
We do not copy commercial question banks. Questions and passages must be original, licensed, or clearly permitted public-domain material. Human reviewers check answers, ambiguity, grade fit, explanations, accessibility, and digital rendering.
AI assists drafting—not publishing
Provider-independent AI tools may draft questions for authorized content staff. Every AI draft must pass schema checks, deterministic validation, answer verification, duplicate review, and explicit human approval. AI cannot publish directly.
Practice estimates
Our adaptive engine and scoring methods are versioned and documented. They are educational simulations, not NYCPS’s proprietary adaptive algorithm or an official SHSAT score conversion.
