The Day Before the Tests
●
You are not allowed to use a CD player with
recording or duplicating capabilities.
Make sure your CD player is in good working order.
Insert new batteries the day before the test. You may
bring additional batteries and a backup player to the
test center. Test center staff will not have batteries,
CD players, or earphones for your use.
●
Make sure your calculator is in good working order if
you are taking a Mathematics Test.
●
●
Make sure your CD player with earphones is in good

2.
Switch to backup equipment, if you have it, and

3.
You may cancel your score on the listening test

●
Pace yourself.
Answer the questions you know fi rst
and come back later to those you didn’t know.
●

as wrong, your chances of guessing correctly among
the remaining choices improve.
●
Omit questions only when you have no idea how to
answer them.
●
If you encounter problems with your CD, such as
occasional skipping, try to work through the
problem and keep testing if possible. If necessary,
raise your hand and ask the supervisor for a
replacement CD. If a replacement is not available,
a makeup test will be arranged.
●
Use your test book for scratch work.
Transfer your
answers to your answer sheet. You will receive credit
ONLY for what is written on your answer sheet.

The answer
sheet has fi ve circles for each question. Some questions,
though, have only three or four possible answers.

If you need to erase an answer, erase it as completely as
possible.
IMPORTANT NOTE: If you start a test and
decide that you are not ready for it, you should cancel
your scores. Do not erase all your answers. You must
complete a cancellation form.
After the Tests
Most, but not all, scores will be reported online several
weeks after the test date. Your score report will also be
mailed to you and to the high school, colleges, universities,
and scholarship programs you indicated when you
registered or when you sent additional scores.
Canceling Scores
If you want to cancel your scores, you must cancel scores
for ALL Subject Tests you take at an administration unless
your equipment malfunctions. (See column on the right
for CD player malfunctions and page 18 for calculator
malfunctions.)
