DCAS testing has begun!! 

A few pointers.....

Be well rested. Get plenty of rest the night before testing.

Arrive on time for school so as not to disrupt the rest of the class upon entering.

Keep early dismissals to a minimum to avoid disruption of the classes.

Eat a good breakfast.

Stay relaxed and confident while taking the test.

 Take your time – this is not a timed test.

Try your best on every item before proceeding to the next item.

Try harder on hard items – do not just skip them.
