Abstract

The computer based tests are capable of putting together a lot of interactions and fascinating question types, such as simulations, online tests, and measurement of skills, rather than simply assessing by paper-pencil tests. The computerized test result has greater standardization of test administration. The aim of this study is to seek out the awareness on computerized test among undergraduate students. Survey method has been adopted. A sample of 450 undergraduate students (226 male, 224 female) were selected from Salem district in Tamil Nadu, India. Awareness scale was used for data collection. Both descriptive analysis and differential analysis were adopted for data analysis. The results found that the undergraduate students had average level of awareness on computerized test.
