Testing Centers
Network Requirements
The main requirement for these sections is 1,500 kilobits per second, per student.
You can easily check your bandwidth by going to: www.speedtest.net
Computer Requirements
The following requirements must be met for each machine to administer the exam:
Hardware (Macintosh or PC)
Mac or Windows workstations (laptops are not recommended and student-owned laptops are prohibited)
2GB+ RAM
A good set of headphones (built-in microphone recommended but not required)
A working microphone (can record clear audio without interference)
Software
Windows 7+ OR Mac OS 10 (any version)
A Web Browser (Chrome (recommended), Firefox, Safari, or Internet Explorer)
NOTE: Browsers will need to be set to accept cookies from exams.actesting.org
At least one week prior to your exam, you will need to certify as many workstations in your lab as the number of students tested (with a few extras in case of emergency). We recommend that, for every five students, you have one extra machine set up. Please see the table below.
