Testing & Assessment Center71 Sip Avenue, Library Building, Lower Level Jersey City NJ 07306(201) 360-4190/4193/4194Website: www.hccc.edu/testing Email: [email protected]

What is the College Placement Test (CPT)? HCCC uses College Board’s Accuplacer as the official placement tool to determine your college readiness in English and Math prior to course registration.

When do I have to take the College Placement Test (CPT)?Students can take the CPT after applying to HCCC and receiving their 7-digit student ID number. The earlier you test, the sooner you can secure your schedule for the semester.

Do I have to take the CPT? Your counselor will need to know your course placement in English and Math prior to course registration.

You may be exempt from the CPT if you have: • College-level English and/or Math credit from another accredited college/university • Accuplacer scores from another Testing Center • Qualifying SAT/ACT scores.

To learn more about CPT exemption criteria, visit: www.hccc.edu/testing

What happens if I fail the CPT? The CPT is not a Pass/Fail test. The scores are used to determine course placement in English, Math, and ESL (if needed). Writing score ranges from 0-8; multiple-choice sections have a score range of 20-120. ESL Essay levels range from 0-4. HCCC offers different levels of pre-college English, ESL, and Math courses to help you succeed in future college-level courses.

Note: Pre-college courses do not count towards graduation require-ments.

What subject areas are covered on the standard placement test? How long is the test?The standard College Placement Test is composed of 4 computerized sections: 1. Writing (typed essay/1 hour time limit) 2. Reading (20 multiple-choice questions/untimed) 3. Arithmetic (17 multiple-choice questions/untimed) 4. Elementary Algebra (12 multiple-choice questions/untimed)

The test is approximately 2-3 hours.

What is the Writing Proficiency Test (WPT)? How long is the test?The WPT is required for Eng 101 transcripts (C grade or higher) that are older than 10 years. Students will receive ENG 101 transfer credit upon passing the test with a score of a 7 or higher. The WPT is a 90- minute hand-written exam.

What subject areas are covered on the English as a Second Language (ESL) placement test? How long is the test?The ESL placement test is composed of 3 computerized sections and essay: 1. ESL Essay (handwritten/1 hour time limit) 2. ESL Reading Skills (20 multiple-choice questions/untimed) 3. ESL Language Usage (20 multiple-choice questions/untimed) 4. ESL Listening (20 multiple-choice questions/untimed)

The test is approximately 2.5-3.5 hours.

Why is it important for me to study and prepare for the CPT?HCCC wants to make sure you are accurately placed into English and Math courses based on your academic needs and skills. The number of pre-college courses you take will impact Financial Aid and the time it will take you to complete degree requirements. Studying and brush-ing up before taking the test will help you save time and money!

How can I prepare for the CPT?The Testing & Assessment website offers many free study tools for English, Math, and ESL. Sign up for a free EdReady account to brush up on your Math skills: www.hccc.edu/testing

I’m not happy with my CPT results. Can I take the test again? Students who take the standard CPT portions are eligible for 1 retest ($5 fee). Course placement will be based on the highest set of scores. Students can elect to study on their own, or sign up for in-person inter-vention. Re-test fee is waived for students who successfully complete: • EdReady Study Plan • Boot Camp • Summer Bridge • EOF Program For more information on these resources, visit www.hccc.edu/testing or speak with an advisor to learn about the best option for you.

Can I use a calculator?Although hand-held calculators are not permitted, students will have access to the calculator function that is built into specific Arithmetic and Elementary Algebra questions. Scrap paper is available at all test-ing stations. Note: Only students with approved testing accommoda-tions will be allowed to use a hand-held calculator.

How can I set up testing accommodations (e.g. extended time)?Students who require accommodations for the CPT will need to meet with Disability Support Services in advance. Please schedule your ap-pointment at (201) 360-4157.

When can I take the test? Testing is offered on most weekdays at the Journal Square campus and select weekdays at the North Hudson Campus. To view the most current testing schedule, please visit www.hccc.edu/testing.
