The ACCUPLACER is a placement test for technical colleges.

The ACCUPLACER is used to assess your current skill level and readiness for the types of schoolwork you’ll be required to do at the technical school — specifically, reading, writing, and math. The ACCUPLACER makes it easier for advisors and counselors to determine whether a student is ready to take a college-level class such as English 101 and Math 101, or if they need additional support in developmental courses such as Math 093 or Engish 099 before enrolling in credit-bearing courses.

The ACCUPLACER is a computerized self-paced, untimed test. The test is delivered in a multiple choice format. Most students complete the test within 1.5 to 2 hours. The test is adaptive; the ACCUPLACER determines which questions will be given next based upon previous answers. This provides a more accurate method of measuring an individual student's skill levels than a general test. It also means that no two tests taken are precisely the same. You are encouraged to give each question as much thought as you wish before selecting your final answer. Your scores will determine which English and math courses you are eligible to take.
