How do test scores affect my core requirements?
Your test scores determine your initial placement in your core writing and math classes.
- Writing - We recognize that your actual writing, not just your test score, should determine your final placement. If you don't believe your test score reflects your writing ability, you may request a placement evaluation. Learn more about alternative writing placement.
- Math - The Mathematics Center offers an alternative placement exam for math. Students may take this exam if they wish to challenge their current placement or if they do not have ACT/SAT scores. Learn more about the alternative placement exam for math.
