Test Innovators has yet another test prep innovation that we’re excited to share with you – Timed Paper Test Mode.
For years, we’ve offered detailed timing feedback on our online platform, which provides valuable insights for students and educators to see how much time is spent per question, as well as an overview of how students spend their time on the test.
As of August 2017, students can now take a test on paper and receive these same results. Students simply enter their answer choices directly into the online bubble sheet in real-time, allowing our adaptive system to collect timing data throughout the test.
Timed Paper Test Mode allows you to combine the real-life experience of taking a test on paper with a full diagnostic timing report, revolutionizing the process of understanding a student’s time management in a real-life scenario. It is truly the best of both worlds.

Just as with any game or sport, knowing the rules of a standardized test is a cornerstone of success. Students who go into a test without any kind of preparation are at a significant disadvantage: they'll be figuring out those rules as the clock ticks. That's why Eastside Catholic School...
In 2020, ERB and Test Innovators partnered with the goal of leveling the playing field for all ISEE test takers.
