Copy Existing Test and Create Similar Test
Copy a test when you want to:
- add up to ten minutes extra to an onscreen test, for students who require special considerations
- change the delivery method from onscreen to paper
- re-use last year’s test for this year’s students. This will ensure old and new results can be reported separately.
Create a Similar test when you want to:
- create another test using the same settings as a previous test in your school. You can make changes to the original settings during this process.
