2008–2009 Obtaining Your Test Results

Answer documents for multiple-choice questions are scored by computer using a process that is virtually error free. However, if you believe that an error has been made, you may request a score verification.

All written, oral, and video-recorded responses are scored according to standardized procedures. Scorers with relevant professional backgrounds are oriented to these procedures and are carefully monitored during scoring sessions. As part of the scoring process, written, oral, and video-recorded responses are scored by multiple scorers. However, as with the multiple-choice questions, if you wish to have your responses to constructed-response assignments reevaluated, you may request a score verification.

A request for score verification must be made in writing and must include your name, your social security number, the test date, and the test sections (multiple choice and/or constructed response) for which you want your score verified. See “Test Fees and Payment Policies” for information about the score verification fee. Payment for score verification must be made by cashier’s check or money order only. Your written request and the correct payment must be mailed to Evaluation Systems, and postmarked within three months of the score report date, at the following address:

If you are requesting a score verification of a constructed-response section, the verification process will take place during the scoring process for the next administration of the test following the receipt of your request. You will be mailed the results of the score verification on the score report date of the next administration of the test following the receipt of your request.

In the event that the score verification process results in a score alteration, you will be issued a corrected score report, the score verification fee will be refunded, and your records will be updated. If the original score is confirmed, you will be sent a letter indicating that the score has been confirmed. In this case, your score verification fee will not be refunded.
