(info) Feature availability varies by program.

You can manage sections to monitor statuses and/or control the section in which students begin testing.

When delivering a test over multiple sittings, you can use this to have all students start in the same section.

You can also have students test out of sequence if necessary.

Pearson recommends that you do not set sections for students in Active Status. To assign a section to a student with the Active status, see how to Resume a Test.

Prerequisites

You cannot set sections for students with the Completed status. When assigning sections to students, check their test statuses.
