IAIS/IAS is a diagnostic assessment that tells the student, parent, teacher and school what is good or deficient in their application of learning. This helps them take corrective action and build on their strengths. This is very similar to taking a diagnostic medical check-up to know what is going well for your body and what could become a problem area in future unless corrected. While all diagnostic labs, big and small, give you similar-looking reports containing a set of numbers, it is the one which uses the highest quality chemical compounds and equipment to evaluate and analyse the sample taken from you that gives the most accurate results—results that your doctor finds confidence in basing his treatment on. You know well the cost of a wrong diagnosis!

IAIS/IAS is brought to you by Macmillan, a 150 plus year old global publisher of educational books in collaboration with Educational Assessment Australia (EAA), a non-profit organisation run by the University of New South Wales. EAA specialises in large-scale assessment. It also provides educational research and measurement services to government and commercial clients nationally and internationally

This means that their assessment process is designed to consistently and accurately measure student performance without any flaws. This ISO certification is unique in the world. It guarantees the quality of questions used to extract the diagnosis on the application of learning from a student and analyse the data generated to give meaningful and accurate feedback. The process of creation of the question bank for these tests is absolutely flawless and of very high standard. Each question is written by independent authors of very high academic standards and is then reviewed by equally competent reviewers. They are then tested thoroughly and relevant information on the questions is tagged before a question is marked as suitable to go into the question bank

Each question is statistically graded on a linear scale for its degree of difficulty and is used selectively in creating the tests and at the appropriate serial number. There are over 5000 questions in the database and many of them will never be used in an actual test unless the test design necessitates their inclusion on the basis of their fit with the test objectives. Each question costs a few hundred thousand rupees to create and test!

There is no equal to these highly scientific assessments anywhere else in the world. Taking IAIS/IAS and basing your corrective actions on them will lead you up the global ladder
