The information that you provide on this Registration Form is important.

Your AIMS advisor will use the data you provide to suggest strong career options that match your specific needs.

If you give us only the basic facts, the advice will be more general.  

If you answer every question that you can, the advice will be more customized to your experience, your goals, and your personal situation.

Be sure to complete the registration form in its entirity and click the "Submit" button at the very end.

It is important that the Registration Form be completed by the person who will be taking the program (the client).

Parents and sponsors may help the client with some of the factual questions but should not complete the form by themselves.

If the client is not willing or able to complete the Registration Form on his/her own, he/she probably will not be able to get accurate results on the testing portion of the program.

Please complete as much of this form as you can.

Some items are required and are marked with a red asterisk (*). You must respond to all of these questions. Some items are required but may not apply to everyone. For example, everyone does not have a middle name.

For these items, there is a built-in option for you to choose (n/a). Click on this option if the question does not apply to you, you do not know the answer, or you are not comfortable answering this question.

Please remember that there is a reason for all of the questions. Every response will be kept confidential. Some data such as Height and Weight are needed for research on certain tests and will not appear on any of your reports.

For items that are not specifically required and that do not apply to you or you do not know the answer or you are uncomfortable answering, you can type a response such as "X", "n/a", "unknown", or "do not want to answer" in the answer space.

Thank you for your cooperation.

The exact day is unimportant. Use 01, if the day is unknown.

You must click to SUBMIT your responses at the end of this form. Otherwise all of the information you have entered will be lost and you will have to repeat the entire Registration Form.

Please read this page very carefully and check the boxes below to acknowledge that you understand it. If someone else is paying for your testing, please have them read it as well.

The AIMS staff needs your complete cooperation to obtain accurate test scores. You should not participate in the program unless you are actively motivated to do so. A negative attitude towards the testing will render the test scores inaccurate and make it difficult for our staff to provide useful recommendations. We strongly urge parents not to send their children to AIMS if they are not motivated to participate in the program.

Aptitudes seem to behave as physical traits. The test scores stabilize during puberty; consequently, we suggest that youngsters be well into puberty before taking our tests. Unless approved by a staff member the minimum ages are 15 for girls and 16 for boys. Students who are taking the AIMS testing program need to be college-bound. Individuals who are interested in careers that require a minimum of a bachelor’s degree are most likely to benefit from the AIMS program.

If you have a minor learning disability or problem, we recommend that you postpone testing until you are at least seventeen years old. If you have completed diagnostic testing for a learning difference or disability, please supply AIMS with the results and information about any subsequent remediation.

The AIMS program may not be effective for individuals with any of the following conditions: auditory processing disorder, visual processing disorder, ADHD, dyslexia, an I.Q. score below 100, or mental illness. If the applicant has any of the conditions listed above, you must contact AIMS to determine if the testing is appropriate.
If there are other conditions that could limit the applicant’s ability to complete the battery of timed tests, please discuss these with an AIMS advisor before you schedule your appointments.

The AIMS program may not be effective for individuals with any of the following conditions: persons taking central-nervous-system-affecting drugs, such as Lithium, Zoloft, Prozac, Deseryl, Paxil, Ritalin, Adderal, Librium, Dilantin, Concerta, Effexor, Wellbutrin, Elavil, Phenobarbital, or tranquilizers. AIMS may not be appropriate for stroke victims, epileptics, persons with chronic or recent injuries or disabilities that would negatively affect mobility, dexterity, strength, or paper-and-pencil speed; persons with hearing-loss, vision-loss, or those recovering from alcoholism or drug abuse; persons whose first language is not English; persons undergoing strong emotional stress related to a divorce, death, or job loss; or any condition that would keep the individual from performing a normal job. If you use any of these or similar medications or have a disability that may hinder your ability to take our tests, please discuss your situation with an AIMS advisor before you schedule your appointments.

Please let us know if there will be any young children coming with you for any of your appointments. There are no day care facilities in our building and loud noises can distract our clients. In consideration of our other clients, cell phones, music players, and other electronic devices that create sound are not permitted for use in the AIMS office, including the waiting area.

Please arrange your schedule so that you arrive for testing, well-rested and alert. It is not advisable to do the program when you are sick or weak from a recent illness.

Parents, guardians, or financial sponsors are strongly encouraged to attend the final conference for any client for whom they are paying the fee.

Please check the boxes below to indicate that you have read and understand this notice.

By submitting this form, I agree that information about my participation in the AIMS program and results may be shared with the person paying for the program.
