Set Up Test Day Toolkit for PSAT-Related Assessments
Complete the steps below when you get an email telling you Test Day Toolkit is ready for your next PSAT-related assessment testing window.
Instructions
-
Sign in to Test Day Toolkit with your College Board account.
- Returning users can go to testday.collegeboard.org.
- If it’s your first time using Test Day Toolkit, click the link in the access email we send you and follow the onscreen instructions.
-
Create your staff list.
- Navigate to the Staff page.
- Add contact details for your proctors and other test day staff.
- If you’ve used the toolkit before, you can also select returning staff from your staff list.
- We’ll send access emails to all staff and use the contact details you provide for 2-step verification. Mobile numbers make first-time access easier.
-
Review your roster for missing students or incorrect data.
- Navigate to the All Students page to view your roster.
- Use the SAT Suite Ordering and Registration (SSOR) system to add students or correct their accommodations and personal information.
- Students won’t be listed here until they’re registered in SSOR.
-
Add testing rooms. Important: If you’re reusing rooms within the testing window, pay close attention to the special instructions below.
- Navigate to All Rooms.
- Give each room a seating capacity and a name.
- If you’re testing in the same room multiple times, you must add a room in Test Day Toolkit for each session to create unique student rosters.
- Use this naming convention for rooms you’re reusing: Add the month and day after the room name. If necessary, add the time, too. Use letters and numbers only. For example, create rooms called “Cafeteria Oct 6 AM” and “Cafeteria Oct 6 PM” if you’re using the cafeteria to test one group in the morning and another group in the afternoon.
-
Recommended: Add a late room.
- If possible, reserve a room for students who arrive at their assigned room after the proctor reads the script.
- Note: If you preassign students to rooms in Test Day Toolkit, you or your staff will need to reassign late students before they enter a room code.
-
Optional: Assign students to rooms.
- On the All Students page, filter or sort your roster by testing group.
- Select multiple students and use the Action drop-down menu to move them to rooms in bulk.
- The Test Coordinator Test Day Guide and the Accommodations Guide have more information about testing groups and room assignments.
- To test students in different testing groups in the same room, skip this step and simply instruct students to sit in the selected room. The toolkit will create a room roster on test day when students enter the room code their proctor gives them.
-
Check room assignments of students approved for small-group testing.
- Look in the Accommodations column on your roster for students approved for small-group testing.
- If any student approved for small-group testing is assigned to a room with more than 15 seats, move them to a smaller room.
- Move each student approved for one-to-one testing to their own room.
-
Assign staff to roles and rooms.
- Assign each proctor to a room.
- Proctors can be assigned to only 1 room at a time. If someone is proctoring multiple times during the testing window, assign them to a new room after each session.
- Assign room monitors as needed to meet required staffing ratios.
- Assign 1 or more technology monitors by selecting Technology coordinator.
- Don’t assign technology monitors to a room.
-
When you’re ready, print student sign-in tickets.
- Click Print Sign-In Tickets on the Test Day Toolkit homepage.
- Print tickets sorted alphabetically or by room (if students are assigned to rooms in the toolkit).
