\"KhanNew York, NY – March 10, 2017 <\/strong>\u2013 This past Wednesday marked the release of the results of the Specialized High School Admissions Test (SHSAT), the sole determinant of admission into New York City\u2019s prestigious Specialized High Schools.

Since 1994, KT has helped over 2,601 students gain admission to these competitive schools. For 2016, a total of 338 students have been accepted through Khan\u2019s Tutorial, shattering last year\u2019s total record of 254 accepted students. This year the record is shattered again with 386 acceptances.

We are constantly developing our program to better serve our families and guide our students into the Specialized High Schools,\u201d said Mohammad Hossain, Vice President of Khan\u2019s Tutorial.<\/p>\n
