    Hello Everyone,
    Is it true that there are no testing sites for Californians for EXPLORER? I was curious if any other Californians tried to have their kids tested. thank you,

    If you find one let me know! I've looked and looked and it was recommended that we drive to Nevada instead!

    I think somebody posted a while back a way around it. Signing up through a certain talent search and then getting some school person to proctor. I am sure there is a thread buried in here that detailed it.

    We asked a gifted teacher to proctor the test and become a "test center". ACT pays her. It takes about a month to set up. You might not be too late, so "explore" that. ACT.org is anxious to have more test centers.
