Step Profile
The step's identity: its title, whether it runs as a scored Test or a consequence-free Practice, and its weight when the task computes an overall score across steps.
The step profile defines how the step presents itself and how it counts.
Title
The name candidates see in their workspace and admins see everywhere the step is referenced — session lists, monitors, reports. By default it follows the test's name; give it a candidate-friendly title when the internal test name isn't (“Part 1 — Verbal Reasoning” beats “VR-v3-2026-final2”).
Mode — Test or Practice
- Test — the normal scored mode: results count, sessions are tracked as real attempts.
- Practice — a rehearsal mode: candidates experience the test flow without the result carrying assessment weight. Use it to let candidates familiarize themselves with the format, the device checks, and the interface before the real step.
Weight
When a task contains several scored steps, each step's weight determines its share of the overall task score. Equal weights average the steps; raise a weight to make one step dominate (e.g. technical test weight 3, culture questionnaire weight 1).
A common pattern: a Practice step first (weight irrelevant), then the real Test step. Candidates burn their nerves and device problems on the practice run, and support tickets during the real exam drop noticeably.
