Additional Tests

Set yourself up for success! Here are some ways to optimize your performance:
 

  • Well-Rested and Stress Free

    Stress and lack of sleep can impact many mental activities so make sure you’re well rested.

  • Reduce Distractions

    Find a quiet space where you won’t be interrupted while taking the test – up to 20 minutes.

  • Select Your Device

    Take the test on a desktop or laptop. (You can take the assessment using a mouse or touch screen)

  • Focus on the Instructions

    Don’t focus on your score but do focus on the instructions and try to do the best you can. Read them carefully and don’t forget: you can retake the assessment every 30 days.
