    You will need to register because that is the only way to show test scores and progress each time taking a test or course. You must SAVE your work as you go – do not click SCORE until you are finished with test.
     
    An email isn’t required, but know that if you don’t enter an email, then you won’t be able to get username or password help if you forget either of those.  This is also the only way to be shown your test scores and track your progress.
