Resolving Student-Tested-Out-of-Grade Discrepancies

A non-eligible test discrepancy occurs when students submit tests for which they are not eligible. This can occur when a student accidentally receives or submits an incorrect answer document.

2.Retrieve the list of discrepancies for your district and school by following the procedure in the section Searching for Records.

3.Optional: To view the answer document for a retrieved discrepancy, click the PDF file in the View column for that discrepancy. The answer document may contain a hint regarding the student to whom the test actually belongs.

4.Click for the discrepancy you want to resolve. The Resolve Discrepancy: Student-Tested-Out-of-Grade window appears.

5.If you want to ignore the discrepancy and forward the test for scoring, click the icon in the Ignore column.

6.If you want to invalidate the test, do the following:

a.Click the icon in the Invalidate column.

b.In the dialog box that pops up, click Continue. The listing of discrepancies appears. Processing appears in the Status column for the resolved discrepancy. The discrepancy will disappear from the list when processing is complete.
