Comments about the OREA admissions test

As you know if you don’t have a high school diploma you are required to pass the OREA admissions test. The OREA admissions test is a three hour multiple choice test. It purports to test basic Math and English up to the end of high school. A calculator is allowed. OREA does NOT publish a sample test. This has led to much anxiety and confusion.

We believe that for most people the OREA admissions test will NOT be an impediment to your entering the program. This post is designed to create a community of comments about the test. Pleases share your experiences.

Your problem should not be getting into the OREA program. Your problem will be passing the program. Learn what skills are necessary to pass the six OREA exams.
