Important Considerations
|
Prior to the test beginning, a student may be given up to 7 practice questions to complete. Three of the practice questions must be answered correctly in order for the actual timed test to begin. If a student is unable to answer the required number of practice questions, the test will stop. This means that the student lacks the required reading skills to be tested.
The test takes approximately 16 minutes to complete. Each questions has a set time limit. A clock will appear at the top of the screen when the time is almost up. |
