Complete the 5-star Advancement Test, found on your account under Assignments > 5-star Advancement Text.

1. If you have already passed either the 5-star Advancement Test, or the old Proofreading Test, you do not need to complete this step again.

After successfully passing both of these tests, contact Author Services at authors@textbroker.com to request your expedited rating.

1. Ensure that you have orders available to rate and you believe these orders are flawless.

If your expedited rating is flawless, you will be automatically promoted to 5-star status.

If your expedited rating is not flawless, you will still be eligible for 5-star status but will need to complete the usual two flawless ratings to be promoted to 5-star status.
