Young man researching which MET test to take.

Which MET is right for me?

MET is offered as a 2-skill or 4-skill test. You can take the 4-skill MET securely at a test center or at home, and can take the 2-skill MET in a Michigan Authorized Test Center or a Prometric test center. Before you schedule your test, make sure you know which MET best fits your needs and which test and delivery options (in center or remote) are accepted by the institution that will be receiving your results. The 4-skill test is for applying to universities in the USA or other English-speaking countries. The 4-skill test can also be used for applying for a professional licensure (e.g., nursing or other healthcare practice). No matter the format, we make it easy to share your results with the accepting institution of your choice.
