The TASP Writing Sample
|
|
Welcome long-suffering students! If you have found this site it is because you are suffering the pains of preparing for the TASP Writing Sample and you are confused, full of anxiety, and probably approaching hopelessness. Unfortunately, you are not alone. Many of our students are bewildered by the task of TASP. Many students simply do not understand what will occur once they enter the room and sit down to take the test. I hope to help you in that regard. If you follow these links, one by one, carefully, I will try to address every question you might have and ease your anxieties by simply telling you what to expect in terms you can understand — no technical jargon and no complicated explanations. There are links here that will take you to sites for practice tests, to register for the exam, to obtain study materials, to explain the complicated TASP policies at this school, and one that provides research on how well the test measures what it is supposed to measure.
