Testing Information

  1. There are four 70-minute tests and a 150-minute comprehensive final exam. Test dates are listed on the front page of the syllabus.
  2. You are encouraged to take your tests early:  “Early” means any time before the Test Week for that exam.  No registration is needed and no penalties will apply for early tests.  You may not begin a test if the MTLC is scheduled to close before the end of your full allotted time: usually you must begin by 4:45 p.m. on Monday through Thursday, or on Friday by 3 p.m. (2 p.m. for a final exam).
  3. You must register a time in order to take an exam on a test deadline day.  The front page of the syllabus lists beginning and ending dates/times for online registration for each exam.  To register online, go to the MTLC website (www.mtlc.ua.edu), select link Test Registration, log in as instructed, select link Register, then choose an available date and time.  You may freely cancel or change your test time while online registration is active.  Be sure to verify your registration: log back in to the test registration site or check your confirmation email message.  You will take all tests at this same time on their scheduled days; excluding the Final Exam. A separate online registration will occur for the Final Exam.
  4. If you miss a test, your zero score will be considered your lowest and may be replaced by your Final Exam score.  Only one zero score will be replaced.
  5. Arrive on time for your test.  Tardiness will cost you working time on the test.  Bring your ID and pencils with you.  Follow the signs to the back hallway.  Staff will check your ID and give you a personalized test paper (which is your initial scratch paper), then direct you to your seat.  No calculator help will be given during testing.
  6. The CASIO FX-260-Solar SCHOOL scientific calculator is the only hand-held device allowed during testing.  All calculator covers must be removed and put out of sight during testing. All cell phones, texting devices, iPods, MP3 players, etc must be turned off and put away before you pick up your test paper.  Use of any unapproved electronic device during a test will be treated as academic misconduct.
  7. Place all belongings on the floor.  Once you enter the testing area, all review material must be put away. As soon as you are seated, you may begin your exam.  The MTLC will give you additional scratch paper as needed; no other paper is allowed. When you are finished, staff will collect all papers. Warning: Do NOT touch the browser’s BACK button, your test will close and you will have to start over.
  8. You will be allowed to review your test before you leave the lab.  You may not write down any information pertaining to test questions to take with you when you leave the MTLC after an exam.  You may not share any test information with anyone who hasn’t taken the test.  Violators will be charged with academic misconduct.
  9. During test weeks, the MTLC will be available for studying, reviewing, and or working assignments during normal hours on Monday and 9-10 PM on Tuesday-Thursday.  The lab will be closed due to testing during Final Exams.
  10. You may not leave during a test without permission.  This includes getting water and using the restroom.  Cell phones must be left at the table.
