    As one of the prerequisite of a private beauty hairstyling school states that they complete grade 12 as part of their application submission. Would the Canadian Adult Achievement Test be applicable to young adults who have not completed their Grade 12 but want to pursue a career in a skilled trade College? If not would you happen to know where I can be directed?

    Hi I bought your practice CAAT test a couple days ago and it had been super helpful in preparing. The only problem I’m having is that the CAAT test I have to take includes science and mechanical reasoning and I was wondering if you would have anything for those topics that I could buy

    Hello,
    I want to enroll in a Health Care Assistant Program in Fort St. John British Columbia I have everything I need except Science 10 but the CAAT does not appear to have Science 10 or any sciences on the CAAT as this is the only section I need to pass with a 10.9 score. Is Science available?
    Thank you,
    Brandy M

    Hi, Do you need to be a permanent resident (PR) to be qualified to write the exam? Can a Work permit holder write the exam?
