Preparing for TABE

The TABE is a placement exam used to assess students' skills in English, math and reading for Career and Technical programs. Your score on the TABE will not prohibit you from entering a specific program, so you cannot fail. 安博体育 uses TABE 11/12 Level A Complete Battery to satisfy the Basic skills requirement. 

You must achieve the state-required scores for TABE 11/12 - Level A by program completion before 安博体育 can award your program certificate. Achievement levels are program specific. If you test below your program requirements, you will only need to study and retest in the subjects that are below your program's exit requirement. TABE exemptions are also possible if requirements are met. See your Academic Advisor to determine if you are eligible and qualify for an exemption.

How to practice the TABE Test Navigation

Students may practice the test navigation for TABE 11/2 - Level A online using tools developed by DRC Insight, the test's publisher. The TABE Online Tools training tutorials are extremely beneficial as a way to practice using the navigation tools in the test platform prior to your test appointment so you will not be overwhelmed on your testing day.

Important Note: You must use the Google Chrome web browser as the TABE Online Tools only work in that browser.  , Once you have clicked the Online Tools Training link, choose the TABE 11/12 links for Reading, Mathematics and Language, then after clicking your desired subject link, click "Level A" and choose the "Standard" or "Audio" choice. You do not need to create an account: there will be a user name and password listed on the login screen to enter and use for the navigation tutorials.

Please practice all three subjects as the navigation tools are slightly different for the Reading, Mathematics, and Language sections.
