Default impact testing --

can we take an impact test anywhere on line (free?)

I was wondering...can we take it...then assess it in a month and see if we're improving? is that how it works?

My kids play baseball mainly and it isn't required...but hockey and football require it. ...that's why I don't know much about it.

You need to have a doctor visit to take the Impact test.

I've found that where I live in Canada, the fee for the testing (because it's not covered under the public health care plans) can range from pretty nominal to several hundred dollars, depending on who's giving it and in what circumstance.

For sure you can re-take to reassess your progress.

I took the ImPACT Test online years ago. I explained how I understand the system and they released the results to me. I paid $10 or so to take it.

It was administered through a psych time organization.

I found this link in my favorites. They will administer the test but I don't know how they get the results to you. I don't remember if they are the ones who did it for me in November '08.

I lost my email response with the link to the results.

Hope this works for you.
