ABSTRACT:
A time scheduler, particularly useful in tests, which includes a timing mechanism for measuring an overall time in the test and a counting mechanism for counting the number of question left unanswered as well as a confirmation key to be depressed by the user every time a question is completed. The scheduler also includes at least one visual display to indicate to the user various statistical parameters. The scheduler can also include a start button for initiating the timing mechanism and a question time display for registering the time available for a single question. Preferably, the device also includes at least one selector key for selecting the options preferred by the user prior to confirming the selection with the confirmation key and an alphanumeric display for displaying the user-selectable options to be selected with the selector key. In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, a question speed indicator indicates either whether the user is answering the questions at a faster rate than the average time available per question or the progress of the user relative to the number of questions remaining. At least one function key is provided to store parameters of a specific test type, such that the user can enter information for the test in advance and recall the information during the test.
