The WBST’s Ability-to-Benefits (ATB) Test is designed to test students on whether or not they have the basic math and verbal skills needed for a postsecondary school training program (post high school), even if they don’t have a high school diploma. The “ATB” qualifier is significant, as qualified ATB students are eligible for Title IV funding, the reserved federal funds meant for educational financial aid. Because of their connection to federal funds, the ATB tests have been approved by the Secretary of Education, though they are administered through Wonderlic, Inc. Those students who have not received a high school diploma or an equivalent are required to pass the WBST ATB test for postsecondary schools participating in the Wonderlic Program to be eligible for Title IV funding, per the Higher Education Technical Amendments of 1991. For ABT determination, both the verbal and math sections must be completed in the same session, with the verbal skills section first.
