2008–2009 Obtaining Your Test Results

Canceling Your Paper-Based Test Score

If after taking the CBEST you do not want your test scores reported, you may cancel one or more section scores. Evaluation Systems will cancel your scores upon receipt of

• a completed Score Cancellation Form (available at the test site); or
  
  
• a written request (include your name, your signature, the last five digits of your social security number, your CBEST identification number, your date of birth, the test date, and each test section for which you wish to have your scores canceled).

Your cancellation request must be received at Evaluation Systems within seven days of the date on which you took the test. If you choose to cancel your scores, you will not receive a refund or credit of any kind.

If you request that your scores be canceled, your test performance will not be reported to you, to the CTC or TSPC, as applicable, or to any institution. Your scores will not be entered into any CBEST records; therefore, after the cancellation of your scores, you will not be able to have your scores reported for any purpose.

The score cancellation service is not available for computer-based testing.


Voiding of Test Scores by the CTC, the TSPC, or Evaluation Systems

If you violate one of the Rules of Test Participation or if doubts are raised about the validity or legitimacy of your registration or your scores, Evaluation Systems will notify the CTC or the TSPC and other parties as deemed appropriate by the CTC or the TSPC.

Evaluation Systems takes reasonable security precautions in developing and administering the CBEST and in processing test scores. The CTC, the TSPC, and Evaluation Systems reserve the right to void your scores if in their sole opinion there is adequate reason to question your scores’ validity or legitimacy, due to misconduct (including, but not limited to, a violation of the rules set forth in the current registration bulletin, including the Rules of Test Participation, and the rules communicated to you, orally or in writing, at the test administration) or to circumstances within or beyond your control.

Further action may be taken, including denying, revoking, and/or suspending a teaching or services credential, permit, or certificate. Other actions, as described in Rule 1 of the Rules of Test Participation, may be taken as deemed appropriate by the CTC, the TSPC, and/or Evaluation Systems.
