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 rescore of your
multiple-choice answer document.
All written responses for the Basic Skills, APT, and LBS II tests 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 responses are
scored by multiple scorers. However, as with the multiple-choice questions, if you wish to have your
written response(s) for the Basic Skills test, an APT test, or an LBS II test reevaluated, you may request
a rescore of these tests.
A request for rescoring must be made in writing and must include your name and the test date and
indicate the test(s) you want rescored. See "Test Fees and Payment Policies" for information about
the rescoring fee. Payment for rescoring must be made by personal check, cashier’s check, or money
order. Your written request and the correct payment must be mailed to Evaluation Systems and postmarked within
three months of the score report date.
In the event that the rescoring process results in a score alteration, you will be issued a corrected score
report, the rescoring 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 rescoring
fee will not be refunded.
All written and oral responses for the foreign language content-area tests and the language proficiency
tests 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, responses are scored by multiple scorers. Scorer consensus is attained for the scores
assigned to all examinee responses, with focus on the scoring procedures and scoring scale that the
facilitators provide. All written and oral responses for the foreign language content-area tests and the
language proficiency tests are automatically rescored; therefore, there is no rescoring service for these
responses.
