The TSIA2 uses computer-adaptive testing to personalize the difficulty of questions based on how the student answers previous ones, providing a more precise measure of ability.
The ELAR section evaluates critical reading skills, understanding of sentence structure, and the ability to write a coherent essay.
The Mathematics section assesses foundational topics such as algebra, geometry, data interpretation, and basic statistical concepts.
The TSIA2 is conducted on a computer and includes multiple-choice questions in both ELAR and Math, as well as an essay for the ELAR section.
