At this point, your exam has been administered to test-takers. Based on the pattern of test-taker responses, each item has been reviewed to ensure that it meets psychometric standards. And from this analysis, you now have a well-vetted and validated set of test-taker exam scores. What’s left to do now? This white paper explores many of the considerations when undertaking this stage in the exam development life cycle.

At this stage, it is important to revisit the now-vetted set of exam items and calculate test-takers’ final exam scores efficiently and accurately. Stage 6 of the Assessment Life Cycle involves calculating test-takers’ scores on the exam they completed and generating reports that will communicate these results in the clearest and most valid manner possible. The purpose of this white paper is to explain the process of generating final test-taker scores and reports and to explore the considerations that go into designing and disseminating various score reports that meet each client’s unique needs.
