On my campus, we have 3 terms of aproxamatly 10 weeks long. The sororities on our campus rush a rush(one informal, 2 formal) per year, each starting a week into the term, and ending a couple weeks before.
The fraternities(we have 5) each have differnet length pledge periods. We start the second week in january. I know our Candidate Education program(LEAD) lasts for a min. of 10 weeks, depending on how you break up the sessions. Adding in a few other things that we must give time for(not hazing, but large group projects involving the entire house, worry not), the period lasts on average, for us, 12 weeks, sometimes a small bit more. WE also have a one week spring break in the middle, that isn't counted.
As for tests, a number of years ago, we used to have to take a large test of about 100 or 200 questions, before we could activate. Now, our HQ has aboloshed the test(as of about 8 years ago I belive). we still do, on top of our other things, weekly tests, but they are about 5 questions long, and usualy filled with interesting or funny questions rather than serous ones. We talk to them, and test their knowledge in other ways, without putting them on the spot, as well as using the tests.
