# Access Student Account

> View a student's account by proxying into it or linking it to yours, without affecting the student's test results or standards report data

Teachers can access student accounts by using a proxy or linking the student's account to theirs. Please note test results populate the standards report when a test is assigned to a student account. You can avoid skewing the report by unassigning the test after reviewing it.
