Download & Review the Study Guide Before Testing
The bulleted lists and sample questions in the study guide can assist you in preparing for the exam. If your exam includes verbal or written responses or a student portfolio submission, the grading rubric will be available in the study guide. While this resource is a complete guide for studying, it does not cover every item on the test. Ultimately, you should use the TEKS to guide your exam preparation.
Online Proctored Exams
All course exams, including both summative assessments and the final exam, must be completed online. Students must test online with Proctorio and are required to add the Proctorio extension to either their Microsoft Edge or Google Chrome browser—installation instructions are provided in the student's course. Proctorio uses a student's computer to lock down their browser during the exam. We encourage you to visit Proctorio's Data Security and Privacy site pages to learn more about how we protect student data.
