AHE FAQs—Testing
Why do you require achievement testing?
Achivement testing provides verification that the grades you submit coincide with norm-referenced test scores.
When is the best time to have my child take annual standardized tests?
Spring or near the end of the school year
What is the proper process for placing my testing order through AHE?
Identify the testing date with your tester and then submit your testing order form prior to February 15. Forms received after this date will be charged a $25 late fee.
What will happen if my child's test results are below the fifth stanine?
A guidance counselor from AHE will contact you to discuss the scores. The counselor will also offer suggestions to assist your child in areas of difficulty.
Does my child need to take the achievement test during the senior year?
If your child scores below the fifth stanine on the achievement test scores in his junior year, he will be expected to take an achievement test in his senior year. Otherwise, no achievement tests will be required for seniors.
