The PLAN testing program will be available to all interested sophomores on:

The PLAN test is recommended for sophomores to help them discover where their individual strengths lie and how to make use of these strengths in future career choices. 

The PLAN test measures academic skills in English, Math, Reading and Science Reasoning.  The PLAN assessment is a practice test for the ACT, which is a college admission test required by the University of Wisconsin admission.  (The actual ACT test should be taken in the spring of your junior year).

The PLAN also assesses your study skills.  You will also complete an interest inventory/career module that will give you some indication of the kind of occupations or jobs you might like.

You will receive your PLAN results in a personalized report that will explain how to use this information to predict your ACT scores and help you plan your future.
