Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q. Do you have any software system for item authoring or test delivery via the Internet?
A. Yes! Please visit www.fasttestweb.com.
Q. Do you sell pre-made tests?
A. No, we do not sell pre-made tests designed with a "shotgun" approach for multiple purposes. Rather, we provide tools and services to help you develop tests specifically for your intended purpose.
Q. I'm interested in adaptive testing. What do I need to do?
A. Developing a computerized adaptive test (CAT) costs many thousands of dollars and requires special software, an experienced psychometrician, and sample sizes of at least a few hundred examinees just for a pilot study. CAT is therefore only feasible for large-scale, professionally-developed tests. You can learn more here.
Q. What is the difference between FastTEST, FastTEST Pro, and FastTEST Web?
A. FastTEST 2.0 is an item banker designed for paper-and-pencil test delivery or computerized delivery via a third party vendor.
