The Ontario Secondary School Literacy Test (OSSLT) is a compulsory standardized test for secondary school students in Ontario who wish to obtain the Ontario Secondary School Diploma.

      

        The OSSLT consists of two booklets that must be completed by students in two and a half hours.

        The first booklet includes multiple-choice and short answer questions, as well as a question asking the student to compose a newspaper article based on the headline and picture provided. 

        The second booklet also includes multiple-choice and short answer questions, as well as a question asking the student to write an opinion piece on a given topic (series of the paragraph).

        The test is out of 400 marks.

        Our tutors provide techniques and methods in handling reading and writing questions specifically on the assessment to help your student achieve success with the test.
