STEP Registration
Registration for STEP 2010 will open on 1st March 2010.
All STEP entries must be made by the test centre administering the STEP. Candidates currently attending a school or college should approach their Examinations Officer to find out if their school is willing to administer STEP for them. Candidates not attending a school or college should find an open centre.
Candidates should discuss STEP costs with their centre as some centres may charge an administration fee on top of the entry fees. Dates and costs
