[IPAC-List] chemistry/physics tests

[Carol.Meyers at aps.com]

Hi, Kevin. Not aware of commercial knowledge tests in this area; but Dr. Anton Lawson at Arizona State University (Life Sciences) has developed a number of tests that are used by colleges primarily to assess degree of proficiency in the sciences for incoming students, but secondarily to help determine if a student will be accepted into an area of study.  He has a number of publications regarding teaching/learning in the sciences as well.  We use some of his materials within our nuclear training programs for development/remediation purposes post-hire.  He considers virtually all his collateral as public domain.

Does anyone know of test publishers or vendors who provide off the shelf written tests in the fundamentals of chemistry, physics, and other physical sciences (preferably tests that have been used/validated in the pre-employment arena)?

 

Thanks in advance for any leads.
