问:我需要参加在线数学分班考试吗?
Most 利记sbo students must take one math course to satisfy the general education requirements. 给你最好的成功机会, it is important that you be placed into an appropriate math course so most incoming students are asked to take the online math placement test before they arrive for summer orientation. 然而,有些学生不需要参加在线数学分班考试:
- 如果你已经完成了副学士学位, you do not need to meet the Core requirements so you only need to take math courses if they are required for your major. Make sure that an official transcript showing that the degree has been awarded has been sent to 利记sbo.
- If you have transferred college math courses that are accepted as equivalent to 利记sbo math courses, 这些转学的课程将用于评估你的数学成绩. Some math courses will transfer only as liberal arts electives and are not suitable for establishing math placement at 利记sbo. An official college transcript is mandatory and a high 学校 transcript will not suffice to receive credit on your 利记sbo record.
- 如果你在AP微积分考试中得了4或5分, 你不需要参加在线数学分班考试. 确保官方的成绩报告已经发送到利记sbo.
- 如果你对此有疑问,请联系你的成功教练. 要找到您的成功教练,请访问: www.尤蒂卡.edu/studentsuccess.
问:即使我这学期不打算学数学,我也必须参加考试吗?
是的! You will have to take math courses eventually and we need to have your placement information on file so you don’t run into delays when registering. 您的考试报名只在有限的时间内有效.
问:如果我真的不想参加在线数学分班考试怎么办?
没有在线数学分班考试或其他形式的分班考试, 你唯一有资格注册的数学课程是MAT100:基础数学. 如果你对数学分班考试感到不舒服,请联系你的成功教练.
问:我在哪里参加在线数学分班考试?
You will receive an email from the Math Department with the URL for a website where the online math placement test is hosted, 您将使用登录ID和密码进入考试地点. Note that the login and password for the online math placement test are not the same as your e-mail login and password. 你可以在家参加在线数学分班考试, 学校, 或图书馆, using any computer with reliable access to the internet using Internet Explorer or the Firefox browser. 不使用谷歌浏览器. 不要尝试通过拨号连接进行数学分班测试. 如果你的网络连接太慢, 与某些问题相关的图像文件可能无法正确显示. 如果发生这种情况,请结束会话并联系 安德鲁·里夫斯教授 授权进行新的测试. 你必须等到你能找到一个更可靠的互联网连接.
问:我可以用计算器吗?
No. Calculators are not permitted in many of the math courses at 利记sbo so part of what the online math placement test assesses is your ability to do math without a calculator. You will need a pencil and paper so be sure to have these on hand before you begin a timed section of the math placement test.
问:如果我在家参加考试,谁会阻止我使用计算器呢?
很好的观点. 但你为什么要? 你最终可能会被安排到一门你还没有准备好的数学课上. 你为什么要选修一门很可能会不及格的数学课呢? 让自己被安排在合适的数学课程中是更明智的.
问:我可以为在线数学分班考试做练习吗?
是的. Once you enter the website and click the link for the Math Placement Test you will see three links for timed tests on the following three topics: Basic Math, 中级代数, 和微积分准备. 在每个定时测试之前都有一个练习测试. The practice tests contain the same number and type of questions as are found on the real tests. You may take the practice tests as many times as you like and see whether your answers are right or wrong. You are required to explore the Basic Math practice exam before you may take the Basic Math timed test. You must take the three sections of the math placement test in order; Basic Math, 中级代数, 微积分准备.
问:我必须参加所有三个部分的考试吗?
不一定. 一旦你的数学水平确定了, 你不需要参加数学分班考试的后续部分. When you finish a section of the math placement test and click “Grade” you will be given a message that will let you know your current placement category and whether you should continue to the next section. Only those students who are seeking to take calculus as their first college math course will need to take all three sections of the math placement test.
问:我可以通过使用“退出”来争取更多的时间吗 & 保存”按钮?
No. 即使你退出登录,计时器也会继续滴答作响. 如果你在下午2:15分开始考试的计时部分.m.,计时器将在下午3点15分结束.m. 即使你使用“退出” & 保存.不要说“退出” & 保存”按钮. Instead, click “Grade” to finish working on that section of the test and find out your results.
