NTN REACT: Suggested Study Strategy
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the NTN REACT exam?
REACT is the adult corrections testing system referenced by NTN. This guide covers Adult Corrections (Comprehensive): Video Human Relations, Reading, Count, and Incident Observation and Report Writing. Confirm the accepted test because NTN also lists a separate Express option.
How long is REACT and how many questions are there?
NTN lists approximately two hours for comprehensive adult corrections testing. Its public description does not publish a total item count, component weights, or detailed component time limits. Human Relations and Count use continuous video items with ten seconds per answer.
What score do I need?
Departments choose scoring standards and further hiring requirements. Read the selected job notice; a practice percentage is not an official score prediction or a guarantee of advancement.
How much does testing cost?
NTN says pricing depends on test location, test type, and department job. Review the displayed checkout total and confirm any fee assistance before purchase rather than relying on an estimated national fee.
Can I retake REACT and keep my old score?
NTN’s candidate FAQ states a minimum three-month wait for standard computer-administered retests. Retesting deletes prior scores and original department-job selections; select the desired jobs again when purchasing a new test. Written scores are otherwise available for one year.
Can I add departments after testing?
Select existing desired department jobs before testing. NTN’s FAQ limits additions afterward to jobs or departments that opened since the test; check the current account workflow and each application deadline.
How should I prepare and what if I test remotely?
Practice all four skills, including watching authorized video examples and actually writing brief reports. OpenExamPrep’s local text bank includes supplementary drills and does not reproduce the official battery. For a virtual appointment, read NTN’s current kiosk and room instructions; they require wired headphones or wired earbuds and prohibit wireless audio. Arrange accommodations through NTN before scheduling when needed.
