Testin’
Tomorrow I drive up to Bellevue in the morning in order to take the WEST-B exam. It’s essentially a general skills (reading, writing, math) test for Washington educators. I did not know I needed to take it for graduate school applications until earlier this week. I always figured you took it in order to get your teaching certificate. Apparently they want you to get it out of the way quickly.
So anyway, it does not appear to be nearly as tough as the GRE that I’ve been studying hellishly for. I just took a practice exam with 90 multiple choice questions and I only missed one, and that one was estimating length based on a given scale. On the real test I would tear some paper and use it to figure out exactly what it was, but here I was using my fingers on a computer screen. So, I sort of feel ready.
In any event, wish me luck!
