BJU Press is now offering Stanford 10 paper/pencil with Pearson's scoring services. Please read Test Details carefully to see how this will affect your testing experience before ordering. Contact BJU Press at testing@bjupress.com to get your account set up to administer tests.

Available year-round for grades K–12, the Stanford 10 is nationally standardized and meets most state requirements. (Check state requirements before ordering.) The achievement test is untimed and in full color.

Choosing the Right Test

If you will be testing and postmarking tests for return on or before July 31, test for the grade your student has finished or will finish soon.

August 1 or later, test for the grade your child just started or will be starting.

Test Details

Results Timeline: Approximately 6–8 weeks after materials arrive back at BJU Press. Please be aware that third-party scoring may cause delays beyond BJU Press’s control. Rush processing for faster results is not available with Stanford paper/pencil due to the nature of out-of-house scoring.

If you need faster results, scores for Iowa Assessments paper/pencil are typically available in 2–4 weeks, and testing results for Iowa Assessments Online will continue to be available in just 2 business days.

Schedule

The Stanford 10 covers a wide range of skills and knowledge. For a full list of subtests and testing times, please see our Stanford 10 Schedule.

OLSAT

The Otis-Lennon School Ability Test® (OLSAT®) is an hour-long abilities test available year-round for grades K–12. This test, which assesses developed reasoning and problem-solving abilities, is offered only in combination with a Stanford Achievement Test. It provides separate scores for both verbal and nonverbal reasoning/learning abilities.
