Studying the test specifications, which include information about the skills eligible for testing in each section, is the first step in preparing for the CBEST. The test specifications are available on the CBEST Web site by selecting “Test Specifications.”

A computer-administered practice test program for the CBEST is available for download at the CBEST Web site by selecting “CBEST Practice Test.” The CBEST Computer-Administered Practice Test is an interactive computer program that contains practice test forms for the CBEST Reading, Mathematics, and Writing sections. If you do not wish to or are not able to download this program, you can print a paper version of the practice test from the CBEST Web site.
