Academic Talent Search (ATS)

The UCI Academic Talent Search (ATS) is a two-fold testing program designed primarily for students in grades six through ten. It identifies students with extraordinary mathematical and/or verbal reasoning abilities, assists participants in their placement in pre-college programs, and offers information and materials which will aid parents and educators of high-ability students. By participating in ATS, you will gain valuable information about your mathematical and verbal abilities early in your academic career, enabling you to plan the most appropriate college-preparatory program.

The Academic Talent Search also offers you an opportunity to sharpen your test-taking skills in preparation for the PSAT and SAT Reasoning Test, which is the basis for National Merit Scholarship awards. You will have the opportunity to become familiar with these reasoning-ability tests and learn strategies for taking them well in advance of your crucial junior and senior years of high school.
