The reading comprehension items are of two general categories: referring and reasoning. Within each of these two general categories are several content categories that further specify the skills and knowledge assessed by each item. Referring items pose questions about material explicitly stated in a passage. Reasoning items assess proficiency at making appropriate inferences, developing a critical understanding of the text, and determining the specific meanings of difficult, unfamiliar, or ambiguous words based on the surrounding context.
Each practice test contains 38 multiple-choice questions. Each page is divided into two parts. The top half of the page allows you to scroll through the passage using the scroll bar on your right. The bottom half shows the question that needs to be answered.
Read each passage carefully and then answer its questions. You may not need to re-read the passage, but it remains available if you need it. When you click on your selected answer, the program will go immediately to the next question. There will be no opportunity to change an answer after you make your choice.
When the test is completed, you will be given your score, shown the questions that were missed, and offered an opportunity to see how each question was correctly answered.
You do not need to complete a practice test in one sitting. You may return to the test at any time and continue working on a partially completed test or review any test that you completed previously.
