What is the CLT Exam?

The Classic Learning Test (CLT), also known as the CLT exam, is a standardized test designed to assess students’ knowledge of the classical liberal arts. It is considered an alternative to the SAT and ACT tests, which are both very popular undergraduate admissions exams for American colleges and universities. The CLT sets itself apart with its focus on the study of history, literature, philosophy, and mathematics and focuses a bit on the classics in its passages. The CLT is divided into three sections: Verbal Reasoning, Grammar & Writing, and Quantitative Reasoning. Each section is scored out of 40 points for a total score of 120 on the exam. The mission of the CLT is to prioritize a well-rounded education rooted in classical literature and critical thinking
skills, appealing particularly to religious schools. However, it’s important to emphasize that the CLT itself is not religiously or politically affiliated, nor does it contain any religious content.

More information on the the CLT exam? The Classic Learning Test (CLT) emerges as a unique alternative to the commonly used SAT and ACT college entrance exams. The CLT offers four different standardized tests:

 

  • The CLT is for college admissions purposes for grades 11 and 12, and is equivalent to the SAT and ACT

  • The CLT 10 is for grades 9 and 10, and is equivalent to the PSAT which is used to prepare for college admissions tests.

  • The CTL 8 is for grades 7 and 8 to track academic progress as they prepare for high school.

  • The CTL 3-6 is for grades 3-6 to measure student reading, writing and listening progress.

  • Our focus is on CLT (for 11th and 12th graders) and how it used to replace or supplement the popular standardized tests (SAT and ACT).
