Test Scorer Companies That Offer Work From Home

Grade Essays and Tests From Your Home

I've personally been a test scorer. And I was grateful for the work.  And with a surge of work from home interest and online classrooms, there is an ever rising need for test scorers. You can earn an income grading these essays and tests. There are several companies that hire test scorers, but this list includes the main five test scoring companies that do the most hiring.

You'll have the best chance of becoming an online test scorer through one of these five companies: ACT Essay Readers, Measurement, Inc., ETS, Pearson and Write Score. These are all work at home positions and can be seasonal most of the time. I've included more information on each company below.

My Experience as an Online Test Scorer

The company I worked for did require a degree, but it did not need to be in English or Language Arts. But not all online test scoring jobs will require that you have a degree. There are several companies below for you to check out and the pay can range from about $8 to over $15 an hour. It's just going to depend on the company and what type of scoring project you've been assigned to. (If you like the idea of being a test scorer, you might also like to check out this great list of online tutoring jobs. Flexible hours and typically great pay!)

I had an online test scoring job for two years in a row at around two month stretches each time. So around 8-9 weeks. I was paid $12 an hour and it was really nice. Everyone was helpful and like I said, the paycheck was nice to have. I was asked to come back for a third year, but I couldn't due to my full-time job just being too demanding and I didn't want to slack on my blog. So I passed. But this is nice work if you can get it.
