We, the community, have been suggesting this for years. We talk about the importance of "learning from errors", yet don't practice what we preach!
While I was fortunate to pass each of my recertifications (over 13 years), I still wanted to know if I was just a bit "high or low" or completely off.
Hopefully, this practice will evolve for all of our betterment.

I have struggled with this in the past as well. Do you think there will ever be changes where after we pass or fail the correct answers are revealed so that we can see if we scored too low or too high? I have found that I commonly miss areas that I score in the middle so even though I know which ones I missed I can't tell if I should have scored higher or lower. I think this would be greatly beneficial for test takers. I know that I would appreciate it.
Thank you,

Recertification can feel tough, especially when you're getting close to that final attempt.
One resource that's really helpful is Teachstone's Reliability Support page: https://teachstone.com/reliability-support It includes targeted supports designed specifically for folks preparing for (or retaking) the test-like guidance on common scoring challenges, tips for aligning to the CLASS lens, and opportunities to get additional help.
A few quick tips that might help as you prepare:
- Go back to the dimension-level language in the manual and focus on what distinguishes mid vs. high ranges
- Watch for patterns across the cycle, not just standout moments
- If possible, practice scoring and then compare your reasoning-the "why" behind scores is key
If you are in need of additional support, please reach out to us at reliability@teachstone.com or via chat in the lower right-hand corner of the site to set up a call with our Reliability Support Team-they're there to help you think through tricky scoring decisions and feel more confident going into your next attempt.

I am having trouble as well and was hoping there would be someone who could provide a suggestion about how to get through it on the last attempt.
