^TESTING PROGRAfrt t

I.RATIONALE

evaluation of the students since some information about them cannot be fuliy conveyed through their

basis on how to deal with him effectively as we are about to give the necessary assistance he needs for a
better transformation. It is for this reason that a functional guidance program includes psychological
testing geared towards assessing an individual's level of intelligence, his interests, abilities, personality
types and to determine arising conflict within him as well. Standardized and non-standardized
psychological test s are being used through proper administration, scoring and interpretation are
applied and psychological test results are treated confidential and secured.
