You will need:

- 60-90 mins to complete the test

- Speakers/headphones

- Microphone 

   (If you have difficulty recording your speaking submission through the website, you can send us your         file separately on your phone using WhatsApp or other programs.)

Students may NOT use web searches, dictionaries or get help from other people when completing the test.  To ensure correct level placement, students will take a test on the first day of classes as well.  If the test result on the first day is very different from this Online Placement Test, the Academic Department may monitor their performance in Week 1 and move them to a more appropriate level.

The Online Placement Test is a helpful tool to plan your study timeframe, but it does not guarantee your level placement if you get help to complete it.  To help us ensure that your result is valid, do all sections yourself with NO help from people, books, or the internet
