This manual is your guide to preparing for and administering the online CLT and CLT10. Administrators and proctors must adhere to the guidelines in this manual so that exams are administered uniformly at every test site.
Be sure to carefully read this manual in order to effectively prepare for test day. If you have any questions after reviewing the material, contact us at [email protected].
Schools must identify an individual to serve as the CLT point of contact. This person will receive all test-related communications and may forward that communication to other school administrators as desired.
Reminders about deadlines and preparing for test-day are emailed regularly to a school’s point of contact in the weeks leading up to an exam. Administrators will begin receiving these emails and preparing for the test about eight weeks before a test.
Multiple school administrators and proctors may request a CLT School Administrator account. Anyone with a CLT School Administrator account is able to register for tests, upload a student roster, and view scores and analytics. Please email [email protected] to request an account.
Instructions for importing your student roster can be found here. These instructions and reminders will also be sent to your school’s point of contact in the weeks leading up to the test.
Test-specific dates and deadlines, including registration, accommodations requests, and score release, can be found here. Your school’s point of contact will also receive emails with reminders about these deadlines.
The Online and Remote Proctored versions of all exams become available during the Testing Window. The Testing Window opens at 12:00 AM Pacific Time on test day (or the first day of testing, in the case of multi-day tests) and closes at 11:59 PM on test day (or the final day of testing in the case of multi-day tests). To ensure that exams are completed within the testing window, students should aim to finish their exams by 10 PM, at the latest, on the final day of testing.
Students must complete the exam in a single sitting, however, multiple cohorts of students may test at different times.
If a student is scheduled to take the exam on the first day of the testing window, and is unable to do so, they may take the exam on a subsequent day within the testing window. This is only an option for multi-day exams. A student who is unable to test at all within the testing window will have to request a reschedule to the next available CLT test day.
All the exams consist of three 40-question sections. An optional essay is also available for the CLT and CLT10. The sections and times are broken down as follows:
