TSA does not require a lot of extra study as it is a test of skills and aptitudes that students already possess. You can get familiar with the test format by doing practice papers, available for download below.
Anyone offering a paid service to help you prepare for TSA will have no more knowledge than someone who has read the information on this website and done practice tests. So while a test-taker’s performance at any test will improve with some familiarisation or practice, we would not advise anyone to pay for such help.
