Secondary students are allowed to test in single subjects as well. ex., math.

Students must achieve a 90% or above to receive credit. The permanent record will reflect credit-by-exam; with a letter grade of A. (For secondary students).

Students are able to take the test twice – once in the early session and once in the late session.

Students can only test one level per subject per session – Foreign Language is the only possible exception.
