Scoring
BJU Press offers Stanford 10 paper/pencil testing with the publisher’s scoring services, rather than scoring in-house. The test publisher scores only Form A tests. SESAT 1–Primary 3 tests must be in one-part booklets; we cannot offer scoring for two-part booklets for grades 3 and below. Before proceeding, be aware that results turnaround is 6–8 weeks after BJU Press receives materials and that BJU Press cannot control delays.
Restrictions
- BJU Press is not offering special reports (e.g., Record Labels, reports with excluded students, Aggregate Reports for scholarships) for the Stanford 10 at this time, nor does BJU Press store student tests.
- Schools must email the filled-in student information template to [email protected]. Materials cannot ship until BJU Press has this information. This will create a Student ID for each student. Testing & Evaluation will send a list of these IDs with materials, and schools will need to bubble the Student ID on each student’s answer document.
- Stanford 10/OLSAT® 8 tests are available for private schools in most areas (not offered to public schools). Neither of these tests should be taken more than once in a 3-month period, and other restrictions may apply.
