Placement Test Information

These placement test scores DO NOT impact a student’s acceptance status. The placement test scores, combined with course recommendation information received from your child’s middle school, and admissions materials (middle school report cards) are considered when scheduling incoming Grade 9 students.

Troubleshooting

If you are receiving this error message, Step 1 has been missed on the instructions above.

You need to sign out of all things Google on the device you are using before attempting to take the test. If another account is signed into Google, the browser will automatically grab the logged in account which will not be accepted for the test and you will receive the “app not configured for user” error.
