The chart below shows the testing levels for each figure skating discipline for the standard track. Testing level charts for the adult track can be found on the Adult Testing page.

Skating Skills tests consist of 4-6 elements, all of which must be skated (usually consecutively) at the same test session in order to pass the Skating Skills test. The tests must be passed in the order shown. A complete list of prerequisites for each Skating Skills test can be found in rule 5011 of the USFSA rulebook.

Singles tests consist of a choreographed program and are performed with music. The only exception is the pre-preliminary test for which the skater has the option to either perform a choreographed program with music or simply perform the specified elements. In order to test any Singles level, the equivalent Skating Skills level must first be passed. A complete list of prerequisites for each Singles test can be found in rule 6211 of the USFSA rulebook.

Pair tests consist of a choreographed program and are performed with music. In order to test any Pair level, the equivalent Skating Skills level must first be passed. A complete list of prerequisites for each Pair test can be found in rule 7211 of the USFSA rulebook.

Pattern Dance tests can be taken either partnered or solo and consist of 3-4 dances. All of the dances in a given level of dance test do not need to be taken at the same test session. Those dances that are passed will be credited toward the completion of the test. For all levels, all dances at that level must be passed before the skater may test any dance at the next level. Note that a skater may switch from partnered pattern dance to solo pattern dance at any level, but switching from solo pattern dance to partnered pattern dance requires the skater to begin again at the preliminary level, or whatever level they last completed partnered. A complete list of prerequisites for each Partnered Pattern Dance test can be found in rule 8211 of the USFSA rulebook and in rule 8214 of the USFSA rulebook for each Solo Pattern Dance test.

Note that solo pattern dance tests may be taken as either lead or follow. Lead is generally performed by the male partner and follow is generally performed by the female partner. While both the lead and follow patterns are the same, for many dances they begin and end at a different point in the pattern.

Free Dance tests can be taken either partnered or solo. Unlike all of the other disciplines, lower-level free dance tests are not prerequisites for higher-level free dance tests. The level of free dance test that a skater may take is determined solely by the level of pattern dance test they have passed. Note that either partnered or solo pattern dance tests can be used as prerequisite for solo free dance tests, but partnered free dance tests require the completion of partnered pattern dance tests. A complete list of prerequisites for each Partnered Free Dance test can be found in rule 8311 of the USFSA rulebook and in rule 8361 of the USFSA rulebook for each Solo Free Dance test.
