- The test supervisor will tell you when to start and stop each test.
- You must work within each test only for the time allotted.
- You may not go back to a previous test once that test has ended.
- You may not go ahead to a new test if you finish a test early.
- After each hour of testing, the supervisor collects test books and answer sheets from students who are finished testing for the day. If you are taking another test, sit quietly until testing resumes.
