For the \# section, have them fill in the number of their test packet (which can be found in the lower right hand corner on the cover. ) YOUR ROLE AS PROCTOR: Your role during the test is to read out loud all of the directions for each section of the test to the test-takers. Your role also includes going over the sample problems, and answering any questions about the test that the test-takers may have. In addition, it is also your job to keep track of time, hand out scratch paper if allowed for that particular section of the test, and watch for cheating (i.e. , using scratch paper when they’re not supposed to, skipping ahead to the next section of the test, going back to a previous section of the test. For each section, make sure all test-takers are on the correct page for that section. For each section, make sure all test-takers are at the corresponding place on their answer sheet BEFORE you give the word to begin. Two minutes before the end of each test section,(except for multiplication) announce that the test-takers have two minutes left. When they have one minute left, announce that they have one minute left. When their time is up, announce that their time is up and have them put their pencils down before going on to the next section of the test. When you have completed all of the test sections, collect the answer sheets, test booklets and pencils. THANK YOU!
