2008–2009
Before You Register |
|
When registering for the CBEST, indicate
your test area choice. Your specific test site will
be determined based on availability and appropriateness
of facilities for test administration and will be within
the area indicated but not necessarily within the actual
city limits.
Register as early as possible to increase your chances
of being assigned to your first-choice
area.
Sites are subject to change in the event of scheduling
conflicts. If it becomes necessary to change a test
site, every attempt will be made to ensure that the
new site is located in the same general area as the
one you originally requested.
