Nigeria's premier inter-school academic competition — preparing students for global standardised tests and international university admissions since 2018.
The PBC iSAT Zonal Competition offers the biggest prize pool in Nigerian inter-school academic history. 1st place wins ₦5M, 2nd wins ₦2M, 3rd wins ₦1.5M — plus laptops, iPads, school bags, free SAT/IELTS tutorials, scholarship referrals, and EducationUSA memberships for all winners.
The PBC iSAT (Internal Student Assessment Test) is an annual inter-school academic competition held across secondary schools in Nigeria. It exposes students to international examination formats — particularly the SAT, GRE, GMAT, and other standardised tests used by top global universities.
The competition bridges the gap between the Nigerian education system and the academic rigour expected by Ivy League and Russell Group universities — turning ambition into globally-recognised achievement.
Practice real exam-style questions across Maths, Critical Reading, Science Reasoning, and Writing.
Schools compete nationally. Top performers earn recognition, trophies, and scholarship referrals.
Past iSAT participants consistently score in the top percentiles on official SAT and ACT exams.
A rigorous three-stage process that prepares students for real international examinations.
Schools register through our official portal. Spots are limited to ensure quality assessment conditions for all participants.
Students sit a 3-hour standardised paper covering Maths, Critical Reading, Writing and Language, and Science Reasoning.
Top performers receive medals, trophies, certificates, and are referred to PBC's scholarship and study abroad programs.
