Free Test Prep for the ACCUPLACER test

Practice Tests, Study Guides, and Flashcards for the ACCUPLACER test. *Note: If you are looking for practice on the newest version of the ACCUPLACER (“Next Generation ACCUPLACER”), you will find that right here, as well! See note below.* The ACCUPLACER test is a set of reading, math, and writing tests that help determine college-level course placement. It is different from many other tests in that the level of difficulty changes according to your performance on each item. The test attempts to pinpoint exactly where your skill level is by altering the difficulty of each succeeding question based on your responses. It is important to do your absolute best and carefully answer each test item for the results to be accurate. The original ACCUPLACER test contains 10 computerized subtests. Your institution will determine which tests you need to take. All of them contain multiple-choice-type items except for the WritePlacer, which is a written essay. Most of these tests are not time-pressured, so you will have a chance to accurately show what you know, except for the WritePlacer, depending on the choice of the administering institution. There are a varying number of items on each test: Arithmetic (17) College-Level Math (20) Elementary Algebra (12) Reading Comprehension (20) Sentence Skills (20) English-as-a-Second Language (ESL)-Language Use (20) ESL-Listening (20) ESL-Reading Skills (20) ESL-Sentence Meaning (20) The WritePlacer essay gives you one attempt to write an essay on a topic and is scored on the basis of five writing skills. ### Next Generation ACCUPLACER® Tests In 2016, the College Board introduced a new version of some ACCUPLACER tests. These are called “Next Generation” ACCUPLACER tests and are composed entirely of multiple-choice questions. All of the new tests are computer adaptive tests (CAT), meaning that the computer igns you the next question or question set based on your response to the previous question. The number of questions you receive is defined for each test, however, most tests contain 20 questions. The new versions of the tests have been designed to better identify student skill levels with regard to college-level abilities. This means that the new tests should be more effective at identifying actual remediation needs and moving all students into credit-bearing courses at a more appropriate pace. For a while, colleges will be free to administer one version of the ACCUPLACER tests or the other, but not both. *Beginning on January 28, 2019, the only Accuplacer tests to be given will be the Next Generation tests.* Consult your institution to be sure you are preparing for the right ones because the content of the new tests is quite different. Union Test Prep will remove all *old* preparation materials from our site at that time since the old tests will no longer be given. This chart shows the names of the new and old tests. ACCUPLACER Tests That Are Changing: *Reading Comprehension* is becoming **Next Generation Reading** *Sentence Skills* is becoming **Next Generation Writing** *Arithmetic* is becoming **Next Generation Arithmetic** *Elementary Algebra* is becoming **Next Generation Quantitative Reasoning, Algebra, and Statistics** *College-Level Math* is becoming **Next Generation Advanced Algebra and Functions** The remaining four sections of the current Accuplacer test will retain the same names and content. They are all English-as-a-Second Language (ESL) tests and are called: **ESL—Language Use** **ESL—Listening** **ESL—Reading Skills** **ESL—Sentence Meaning** To help you identify which of our practice materials to use, the sections with new version practice will be labeled “Next Generation” on our site. Remember that the old versions are still being administered, so check the names of the tests *you* will take very carefully. In the case of the *Arithmetic* test, you will need to be very specific in asking about the version of the test you will take, as the new and old versions of this test may have the same or similar names, but the question types may be very different.

Free Test Prep for the ACT

Practice Tests, Study Guides, and Flashcards for the ACT. The ACT test is a national college admissions test and, like the SAT exam, is accepted by all 4-year colleges and universities in the United States. The ACT test comprises subject area achievement tests in four areas: English, Mathematics, Reading, and Science. As an achievement test, it measures what you have learned in school. In this way, every time you attend cl , you are preparing for the ACT test. This test has an optional Writing section. Students planning to take the test for a specific college should check to see if the Writing section is required for the schools of their choice. Keep in mind that you cannot take the Writing test separately, at a later date. You’ll have to repeat the other four test sections to get a writing test score if you find out you need it later, so it’s probably a good idea to just go ahead and take it with the other tests.
