Take a Required Diagnostic Test

When your instructor is requiring that you take the diagnostic pre-tests before you can have full access to the course, the MyLab displays the Diagnostic Required screen when you log in. This screen lists the required diagnostic pre-tests, and you cannot access any other course materials until you complete the pre-tests.

To take a required diagnostic pre-test:

Click a diagnostic test link on the Diagnostic Required screen.
The MyLab displays the test's first question.
Select an answer and click the Submit button.
The next question is displayed.
Continue selecting answers and clicking the Submit button to finish the test.
If you want to quit and finish the test later, click the Stop to Resume Later button. When you re-enter the diagnostic test, it picks up where you left off.
After you complete the last question, the MyLab displays your test results.
- A green check mark indicates that a topic is mastered. Depending on how you answered certain test questions, you may have already mastered some of the Study Plan topics.
- Click a topic's Review link to display the diagnostic questions that pertain to that topic.
- Click the Review link for the Overall Results to display all the diagnostic questions, showing which ones you answered correctly and incorrectly.
Click the Next button to continue with the next diagnostic.
When you have completed all the diagnostic pre-tests, click the Go to Study Plan button. (See The Study Plan for more information.)
