Yes, we take them every semester (4 this semester and 4 during summer school).

Here is the breakdown of the levels for each test

Thanks Don1984. Do you know how they add back points??? I don't understand that. There has got to be a formula they follow. Why not have the grades come up as they are instead of having to add points to it?? I don't understand this, do you?

Your school should have an entire policy on this. It will include how they score and what this means to the student.

If you are talking about the proctored exams, when we finish a test, we get a report with our score immediately after finishing the test. Not sure what you mean by adding back points. If the test has 65 questions, 5 questions are beta questions that ATI is testing if they are valid questions and don't count against you.

They may have this information; however upon request for information, they said for me to contact ATI.

Perhaps the questions you got wrong were the beta test questions and not counted in your final score/assessment...
