The last time they gave the test (almost 6 years) each section of the test is broken into "sessions". You basically take a section...then a 10 minute break. The test (when I took it) itself really isnt that bad, it is just the breaks and they go over the instructions for each section before you begin.

I took the test yesterday and I found it very easy. Most have some type of grammer, english structure, and memory questions but this test did not. I thought the test seemed very basic. I will have to wait and see how I did.

The results for the Akron test were in last week.....they have to add the extra credit into the scores....to get the proper ranking.......results should be in within the next couple of weeks......The physical agility test will be right around the corner then......
