Although the SSAT is less well-known than the ACT or SAT, its function is the same. Your SSAT score will become a major factor in any boarding school admission decision, especially at the more competitive schools, so preparing for it is wise.
An 18-year-old woman in above-average physical condition, for example, typically has a normal pulse rate between 66 and 69 beats per minute. This range changes only 1 to 2 beats a minute over the years, and returns to the 66 to 69 beat baseline for women 65 years or older in above-average condition.
Your pulse rate is the number of times your heart beats per minute. A normal pulse rate depends on your age and current level of fitness. The average resting heart rate for most adults, including senior citizens, is between 60 and 100 beats per minute. Young children tend to have higher resting rates than adults, while well-trained athletes have very low pulse rates. As you age, you may find your resting heart rate will decrease.
