There are many different scenarios where you might assign this assessment. Below is an example scenario but it’s not limited to this scenario.
Scenario
There are some students who score a Green on their GED Ready test and then go to take the GED test. This is our recommended pathway for a student using the GED Ready test in test preparation. However, sometimes they score a Green on the GED Ready test but fail the GED test. The student then resumes studying, scores another Green on their GED Ready test and goes to take the GED test but fails again. This assessment can be used to break this cycle.
It’s a self-awareness assessment that focuses on students’ attitudes and behaviors. Students select their level of agreement to each assessment question using a 5-point scale.
