Do you have to take a test once you transfer schools?

Question

I was wondering if you have to take any kind of test once you transfer High School's? I'm gonna transfer to a new high school and I'm worried that I might have to take a test. I don't do very well on tests but I do really good on homework or w/e I must complete; I really freak out on tests and I fail most of them even thou' I know I can do the problems on the test. I just don't wanna get held back by some shitty test that pretty much says where you are in school. I can do tests that teachers give out but when it comes to somethin' that resembles SAT or ACT or some sort of Standarized test.. my brain pretty much dies on me.

Answer 1

Of course you do.

There are quite a few academic profile and/or achievement tests that you'll be taking, all the way through your Ph.D., if you care to go that far.

Short version: it's all tests, laddie.

Answer 2

if you are in the same state, probably not. if you are moving to a new state, you may have to pass a state proficiency exam (sometimes given in the 9th grade and continued until the student passes). Other than that, no testing is generally required for students because schools get the records from the other schools..

Answer 3

I think it depends on what school. Most public schools don't do but I know that all private schools will make you take a test.

Answer 4

Different states have different tests that must be passed before you can graduate. If you are moving within the same state, then no, but different states, then maybe.
