This section is composed of 3 reading passages of about 375 words each on topics from fiction, business, and social studies, and 8 multiple-choice questions per passage. They must also use reasoning to determine subtle meanings by drawing conclusions and making comparisons and generalizations. English 101, college-level composition, is the highest placement. Students placing into Math 084 are eligible to continue testing for a higher placement. Only Students must have both an English and Math placement on file before they will be allowed to register for classes.
Evening times are available, but there is no weekend testing.
If you do not receive a return call, your appointment is confirmed. Testing will contact you only if there is a problem with your appointment. A calendar is posted outside the door and on the front counter with available dates and times, and testing staff will reserve a seat for you. However, the same guidelines for placement apply. The math test will also test students to the limits of their ability, up to Math 124, rather than stopping at Math 084.
