Sep 28, 2026

Uploaded by Blitz

Proctoring instructions for an SAT-style diagnostic test specify who may supervise (parent proctoring, with optional self-proctoring if needed) and what materials to prepare before testing, including printed diagnostic, answer, and essay answer sheets. The schedule allocates uninterrupted work time and detailed timed sections: Reading (65 minutes), Writing (35), Math no-calculator (25), Math with calculator (55), and Essay (50), including scheduled breaks. Notes emphasize strict section-only work, no returning or skipping ahead after each section ends, and procedures after the test for scanning and emailing results.
