The simulation is mandatory. It is is an opportunity for school staff to evaluate the readiness of their school's internal systems, hardware, and school testing procedures for CBT.
Participation in the Simulations prior to testing affords teachers and students the opportunity to practice and strengthen their familiarity with Questar's testing platform that mimics the actual testing environment.
Operational CBT schools must participate in the Statewide CBT Simulations.
NYSED will be using real student data for the simulation,therefore student login ticket may not be generic as compared to previous years.
