Pretest - Pre-test and Posttest - Post-test Hi! I would like to ask, which ones are correct: 1. Pretest and posttest or 2. Pre-test and post-test Why?

The best way by far is to use the hyphens: pre-test and post-test, because it's easier to read and these words are fairly new in the language. (Often, over time, compound words will have the hyphen eliminated.) You will sometimes see "pretest" (though my spell check doesn't like it.) Posttest is very rare, probably because the "stt" sequence looks very strange and interrupts the flow of reading.
