How ACT Tessera Works

Each skill area is assessed using three different techniques

2 Situational judgment test items Students are presented with several scenarios and possible responses to each They then rate the likelihood that they would engage in each response

3 Forced-choice test items Students are presented with several statements and asked to select the statements that are ldquomost like merdquo and ldquoleast like merdquo
