On the date of testing, applicants must bring their signed Medical Release Form, valid photo identification, and proof of TCLEOSE certification or Academy status.  

Testing will consist of the Nelson-Denny reading comprehension.  Applicants who score a 13 or higher on the Nelson-Denny will be given the L.E.V.E.L. test.  A study guide is available for the L.E.V.E.L. test and can be found at: http://bannonandassociates.com/entryleveltest.html
