Can I complete the ADX knowledge examination at a PSI testing center near me before showing up for the first day of class or do you recommend that we take it there in Fort Lauderdale after classes start?

Although you’ll probably have to pay $175 (as of July 1, 2021) for the ADX test at a testing center, which is included in your 5-week course tuition here at Sheffield, we recommend to get it out of the way before arriving at school, ONLY IF YOU ARE READY TO TAKE THE TEST a few weeks or more prior to the start of class. Otherwise, take it at Sheffield as 95-100% of typical classes do.

Also, without tutoring, there is a 30-day waiting period before RETAKES.

Please understand, that 5-week course students typically DO NOT take this test before arrival at Sheffield – it is RARE, so don’t worry about it if you cannot do so – you are normal!
