Computerized Adaptive Testing (CAT)
Computerized Adaptive Testing (CAT) is an assessment method that adjusts the difficulty of questions based on a test-taker's previous answers. As you respond, the computer analyzes your performance in real-time and selects subsequent questions that better match your skill level. This approach makes the test more efficient and accurate, often requiring fewer questions to determine your abilities precisely. CAT is commonly used in standardized exams, providing a personalized testing experience while reducing test length and improving the assessment's reliability.
