ACT官方發布The computer-based testing model for the ACT test? is scheduled to launch in all international markets in September 2018. With this change, there will be an increase in the number of testing opportunities for your students. Each year, there will be six test windows (up from the current five test dates). In addition, the goal is to make each window two days long, with two sessions each day—a morning session and an afternoon session, depending on location.
ACT考試將于2018年9月在國際市場推行全球機考模式(CBT -- The computer-based testing)。實行這種調整,將為國際學生增加更多的考試機會。每年即將有6次考試安排。(改革前,國際生僅一年5次考試安排)此外,考試時間由1天調整為2天。根據不同考試中心,每天的考試分為上午時段和下午時段。
Delivering the ACT test online will also reduce the time between testing and reporting. Instead of completed test materials being collected, packed, sent, clearing customs, sent again, received, unpacked, and finally scanned, and returned back to the examinee, multiple choice scores will be available to students as quickly as 48 hours after the student completes the test.
Registration for the 2018-2019 administration of the ACT test in International locations opens in July 2018. In the meantime, the ACT team is working diligently to ensure all systems are prepared and communications sent to various stakeholder audiences, partners and potential examinees, to ensure a successful transition to this new delivery model.
