Miller Analogies Test (MAT)
The Miller Analogies Test (MAT) is a high-level mental ability test requiring the solution of problems stated as analogies. It consists of 120 partial analogies that are to be completed in 60 minutes. Fluency in the English language, a broad knowledge of literature, philosophy, history, science, mathematics, and fine arts, and the ability to reason out relationships may contribute to performance on the MAT. There is no foreign-language edition of the MAT. No one is permitted to use a dictionary or any other reference aid when taking the test. The MAT is available as a computer-based test or a paper-based test. Additional information about the test can be found at www.milleranalogies.com. The MAT is administered through a network of Controlled Testing Centers licensed by The Psychological Corporation. While The Psychological Corporation has rigorous procedures that all Centers must follow, each Center establishes its own testing schedule, test fee, and other procedures. Candidates apply directly to a Controlled Testing Center to take the MAT. The Center is responsible only for administering the MAT; The Psychological Corporation does all scoring and reporting of scores. For more information about the Miller Analogies Test, please obtain the Candidate Information Bulletin published by The Psychological Corporation. The Psychological Corporation To request a Bulletin, complete the form on the website (www.milleranalogies.com) or visit MARC in 1200 Carnell Hall.
Temple University is a computer-based MAT Test Center and the test is usually administered on Wednesday afternoons and one Saturday a month. (NOTE: May - August, the weekday test will typically occur Thursday afternoons, instead of Wednesday). All MAT testing is by appointment only. To schedule an appointment, call 215.204.8611, Monday-Friday, between 8:30 am and 5:00 pm, at least one week in advance. FEE: $70 payable by check or money order (made out to Temple University), payable at the time of testing. At the time of testing, in addition to the examination fee, candidates must present two forms of identification: one must be a government-issued photo ID (such as a driver's license or passport) or a school-issued photo ID with a signature; the second can be another form of identification, such as a social security card or a birth certificate. Important Note: Candidates who have taken the MAT previously must say so when making their appointment. If the candidate has taken the test within the past twelve months, he/she must bring a retest admission ticket to the test session.
At the time of testing, candidates may designate up to three score recipients. Candidates should bring the exact addresses of score recipients and the program within each school or college where scores should be sent. Failure to bring the correct names of the programs and the complete mailing addresses may delay score reports. Scores are issued by The Psychological Corporation. If the candidate elects to submit the exam for processing, the candidate may receive a preliminary score report immediately and the designated score recipients should receive the scores approximately three (3) weeks after testing. Candidates are responsible for verifying that the score reports reach the correct score recipients. There may be an additional charge by The Psychological Corporation if a duplicate score report is requested. |
