How to Prepare for Your Psycho-Educational Testing Session

Sleep: You will want to ensure you get adequate sleep for the nights leading up to the testing session(s).  You will want to avoid participating in any activities that involve staying up late the night before the session

Clothing: Dress in comfortable clothes, ideally in layers to accommodate for different temperatures in the office.

Food: We recommend eating a good breakfast on the morning of the testing session. You may also consider packing some snacks and drinks to have during breaks in testing — to keep your energy and motivation at optimal levels for testing.

Medication: You should take all medication, as prescribed, on the day of the testing session.

Assistive devices: Please make sure you come to the appointment with your prescribed glasses / contacts, hearing aids, or other devices.

Illness: If you are not feeling well the night before or morning of the testing session, please let Dr. Ralph know as soon as possible. Given the potential significant impact of illness on performance, it would be better to cancel and reschedule than proceed with testing and obtain inaccurate results.
