Frequently Asked Questions

Which units are covered in the Winter and Spring Checkpoints? When should I take the Checkpoints?

Every teacher approaches the order and speed of material differently. We’ve followed College Board’s guidelines as closely as possible.

Winter Checkpoints

The ideal time to take is January or later.

Biology – No Ecology 1-3 (Cellular Energies)
Chemistry 1-4 (Chemical Reactions)
Calculus AB 1-4 (Contextual Applications of Differentiation)
Calculus BC 1-6 (Integration and Accumulation of Change)
US History 1-4 (Period 4: 1800–1848)
European History 1-4 (Enlightenment, Scientific Revolution)
World History 1-4 (Transoceanic Interconnections)

 

Spring Checkpoints

The ideal time to take is March or later.

Biology 1-7 (Natural Selection) 
Chemistry 1-8 (Acids and Bases + a few questions on unit 9)
Calculus AB 1-6 (Integration and Accumulation of Change)
Calculus BC 1-9 (Parametric Equations, Polar Coordinates, and Vector-Valued Functions)
US History 1-7 (Period 7: 1890-1945)
European History 1-7 (19th-Century Perspectives and Political Developments)
World History 1-7 (Global Conflict)

 

What about English Language and Literature?

While there are unit for both of these classes, they are more general, like “explain the function of plot” and tend to all be covered throughout the course.

What is covered in the full practice tests?

All units are covered. 

How are practice tests proctored and graded?

Practice tests are offered on the Compass online testing center and can be taken at your convenience. We strongly recommend that you plan to take each practice test in one sitting.

FRQ responses are either typed directly into a compose window in the testing interface or hand-written on blank paper for hybrid tests (Biology, Calculus, Chemistry, and Statistics). After the completion of a hybrid test, students are prompted to use their phone to photograph and save their work to the test. The upload process will not deduct from the allotted time. 

Multiple choice sections are graded instantly and available in the student’s account at my.compassprep.com. Grading of FRQs generally takes 1 week. Students receive a notification email when score reports are complete.

Score reports include an estimated 1-5 scaled score as well as detailed Free Response Question scoring and feedback from our expert readers.

*Please note that the Winter Checkpoint assessment does not include an estimated 1-5 scaled score.*

To receive a full score report before the date of the actual test, students must complete their test one week before the official date:
