Answer to Question 1

B

Answer to Question 2

A standardized test battery is probably the best when comparable results are needed across subject areas for given schools or school districts within a state. Single content tests are best when more diagnostic information is needed and when teachers wish to see if specific content has been mastered in a given content area. Individual standardized diagnostic tests are usually used to test the achievement of poor readers or students with disabilities.
