How ACT Tessera Works
Each skill area is assessed using three different techniques
1 Self-report test items Students rate the extent to which they agree with several statements
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

How ACT Tessera Works
Each skill area is assessed using three different techniques
1 Self-report test items Students rate the extent to which they agree with several statements
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
