In order to facilitate student placement procedure, ICANA is beginning its Placement On Line (POL) service. Test items have been selected taking into account the objectives of each level of instruction So as to make optimal use of this test, prospective students should do the following:
Decide which of the three macro levels- Elementary, Intermediate and Advanced- as described below best suits their current proficiency in the language.
Answer the questions corresponding to the different sublevels within their selected level.
Bear in mind that if their score is over 80% on a certain sublevel, the system will automatically give them the chance to move on to a superior level. When the score does not reach that percentage it will be an indication that they will most probably have to attend the course level they are being tested on….. to be completed.
Get a printout of the score report and bring it to ICANA.
Keep in mind that this placementon line is only a part of the placement test battery. On site, ICANA staff will evaluate their oral proficiency by means of an oral interview. If there is any discrepancy between the POL results and those of the oral interview, it will be up to the trained ICANA personnel to make the final decision.
Please adhere to the terms of agreement.
