A description of the written
aptitude test procedures is
presented below.
Testing will take half of the
day. The study session will begin
immediately after the completion of
the registration period. The
instructions for the study session
will be read aloud by a test
monitor. During the study session,
each applicant will be given two (2)
hours to study a variety of printed
materials. These materials will
include printed text, line drawings,
written instructions, and pictures.
These study materials are the basis
for the aptitude test, which will be
administered during the exam
session.
Applicants are allowed to make
written notes about the study
materials. However, these notes must
be written on paper, which will be
provided by the test monitor. Also,
each applicant must turn in his/her
notes to the test monitor at the
conclusion of the study session.
During the study session, you may
take as many breaks as you would
like. Please note, however, that
these breaks will shorten the amount
of time that you will have for
studying.
You may leave early from the
study session. However, once you
decide to leave from the study
session you must turn in your
materials and you will not be
allowed back until the registration
period for the test.
Applicants will be given a ½ hour
lunch break. Lunch will not be
provided during this break.
The exam session will begin with
the re-registration of each
applicant. Instructions for the test
will be read aloud by the test
monitor. The test will require that
applicants read printed materials
and record their answers on an
optically scanned computer sheet.
You will have two (2) hours to
complete the written examination.
All questions on the examination
will be drawn directly from
materials provided during the study
session. You must learn the study
materials presented during the study
session to do well on the
examination. Note this important
instruction: You will not be
allowed to take the exam if you did
not attend and register for the
study session.
