It SHOULD NOT be taken without first working through some of the reviews below. 

It is not uncommon for students to fail the first time the test is taken.

Therefore students should review extensively before taking the test.

While taking the test, students should also check their work and make sure fractions are reduced before moving to the next question.

The incorrect multiple choice answers were obtained from student work on previous versions of the test which were not in multiple choice format.

 

1.  The test has 31 questions.  At least 27 questions must be answered correctly to pass.

2.  No calculator is permitted for the test.

3.  Pencil and paper will be provided to work problems.

4.  Students must turn in all paper work after taking the test.

5.  If a student fails the test twice, the linked practice must be worked out and turned in to Phillip Miller, Coordinator for lower level Math ( LF 106, 941-2405, pmiller@ius.edu ) to qualify to take the test a third time.

6.  If a student does not pass the test on the third attempt, the student can not register for T101 for the upcoming semester.  The student must wait until the next registration period and only has 1 attempt for each future semester.
