Question 2

With respect to the legality of these tests, which of the following is the most accurate response?
◦ While generally required for employment, you are not legally bound to take the tests in order to apply for employment.
◦ You will be legally bound to take the tests if you want to become eligible for a teaching license.
◦ While you're not legally bound to take the tests, your chances for employment are reduced if the test results are not on your record.
◦ You are legally bound to take the tests if you don't have a degree in a specific content area, such as math, but if you have a degree, you're not legally bound to take the tests.
