The most common type of written test that the Los Angeles Community College District gives is the multiple-choice format. A multiple choice question presents a question with several alternative answer choices. Your task is to pick out the answer choice that gives the correct answer to the question. Although the number of questions vary, a written test typically consists of about 50 - 150 different questions.
The following information is designed to assist you in becoming familiar with the types of questions you may encounter when taking one of our exams. Actual test questions may vary in type, level of difficulty, and subject matter depending on the job classification being tested for.
It has been said that a weed is a flower whose virtue has not yet been discovered. As if to prove this point, a number of homeowners who are tired of constantly maintaining a pretty lawn and shrubbery have decided to let weeds run wild in their yards. The result, in some cases, has been quite an attractive array of lively shapes and colors.

The ACCUPLACER is a multiple-choice test. The numbers of questions on the ACCUPLACER vary depending on which ACCUPLACER you are taking. There could be as few as 12 questions or as many as 40 questions.
The test consists of 50 multiple-choice questions: 40 grammar questions /10 of which test exposure to the league rather than grammar knowledge or application/ and 10 vocabulary questions. It is based on legal context but some of the questions reflect social or semi formal context.
A conversion chart is provided to determine the corresponding level based on the score. The vocabulary questions are not strictly level graded, and participants are encouraged to attempt them even if they find the grammar questions too difficult.
MET can be taken as a digital 2-skill test that consists of listening and reading sections or as a digital 4-skill test that includes writing and speaking sections. If you are an international student planning to use MET to apply to a university, or a healthcare professional applying for an occupational visa to work in the US, you will need a 4-skill exam taken in an Authorized Test Center. The 2-skill version of MET is used by some institutions to meet internal or local requirements. Please note 2-skill MET can only be taken in an authorized test center and the 4-skill MET is not offered as a remote test in all countries.
The MET Writing Section consists of two separate tasks to cover a range of writing types and functions. Test takers write a few sentences in response to three related questions about personal experiences, and then write a formal, multi-paragraph essay in response to a prompt. Typically, higher-level responses will have at least 250 words.
The MET Listening Section reflects language used in real-life situations. It contains three parts and assesses the ability of a test taker to understand a variety of speech in public, personal, educational, and workplace contexts. Questions feature short and long conversations as well as talks given by one person. Topics range from familiar to less familiar, covering both concrete and abstract ideas.
The MET Reading Section includes grammar. Grammar items reflect language used in real-life situations. They consist of one sentence containing a blank. For each, test takers select the word or phrase that is grammatically correct.
The MET Reading Section covers a variety of global, local, and inferential reading skills. The single-text reading part features two informational reading passages of academic or general interest. The multiple-text reading part contains two sets of three thematically related passages based on texts found in real life, such as newspapers, advertisements, emails, letters, and magazine articles. Each is followed by multiple-choice questions.
The MET Speaking Section gives test takers the opportunity to demonstrate their ability to describe a picture, talk about a personal experience related to the picture, give a personal opinion related to the picture, explain advantages and disadvantages of a given situation, and give an opinion and try to persuade the examiner to agree. The five stages of the test build on each other; as the test progresses, the linguistic and interactional demands become increasingly more challenging.
The listening and reading sections of the MET are scored by computer at Michigan Language Assessment. Each correct answer adds to the final score for its section; points are not deducted for wrong answers.
Test takers receive a scaled score from 0-80 for each test section, and an average score for all sections taken. Instead of receiving a pass or fail, they are shown where their skills fall in terms of the CEFR, including a detailed description of abilities at that level. An MET Certificate of Achievement is available upon request.
The MET is aimed at the high-beginner to advanced levels (A2-C1 of the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages) with emphasis on the intermediate levels (B1 and B2). See the MET Scoring Table for can-do statements for each level.
First-year students as well as continuing students wishing to take Spanish language courses at Bates must take the online Spanish language Grammar and Reading assessment prior to registration in order to determine their entry-level course and receive the corresponding prerequisite override.
Students who have taken a year of Spanish, in high school or elsewhere, may not be able to register for HISP 103. Repeating material studied in previous courses is not only boring but also unproductive for reaching long-term proficiency goals.
Students for whom Spanish is a first or heritage language, interested in taking upper-level Hispanic studies courses (beyond HISP 205) may also elect to take the assessment. In all cases, however, they should consult with the instructor of the desired course and/or department chair in order to receive the necessary registration override.
The assessment is multiple-choice and covers grammar, reading, and vocabulary. It is an adaptive survey, which means that the question difficulty will vary depending on how you respond. Do not get discouraged if you are unfamiliar with some of the material. Make your best guess and go on to the next question.
Q. Why did we change to DLPT5? What was wrong with DLPT IV?
A. Every 10 to 15 years, as our understanding of the ILR, language testing, and the needs of the government change, the DLPTs have been updated. The DLPT5 is just the latest version. The DLPT IV series tests were developed at a time when listening to authentic material was not considered as important as it is today (and it was not as easy to obtain authentic material as it is today). The very short length of the passages in DLPT IV also did not allow the test to cover as many of the aspects of the ILR skill level descriptions as was desired. The DLPT5 specifications address those issues.
Q. Why are scores lower on the DLPT5 than on older DLPTs?
A. No language test is 100% accurate. So when calibrating a language test, the question is always whether the error should be in the direction of being generous or strict. Older DLPTs were calibrated so that the error would be in the direction of being generous. With DLPT5, the post-9/11 emphasis on readiness resulted in a desire to have any error be in the direction of being strict.
Each new generation of DLPTs has incorporated innovations. Sometimes these innovations involve aspects of language proficiency that test-takers had not previously had to deal with on DLPTs, and that may not have been emphasized in training or self-study programs.
Q. If an older DLPT is replaced by a DLPT5, are old DLT scores still valid? And how soon do people have to take the DLPT5?
A. Scores are valid as long as they were in the past, typically one year. If you took the DLPT IV in April of one year, and the DLPT5 rolled out in May, your DLPT IV score is good until the following April, as usual; and at that point you would take the DLPT5.
Q. What range of ILR levels is covered by DLPT5?
A. DLPT5s are available either in a lower-range test that gives scores from 0+ to 3, or in an upper-range test that gives scores from 3 to 4. Some languages have only a lower-range test; some have only an upper-range test; and some have both.
Q. How do I become eligible to take the upper-range DLPT5?
A. To take an upper-range DLPT5, you must have a score of level 3 on the lower-range DLPT5. (Exception: if there is no lower-range DLPT5, a score of level 3 on a lower-range DLPT IV is used.) You do not need to have a score of level 3 on both skills. If you have a 2+ in listening and a 3 in reading, for example, you may take the upper-range test in reading (but not in listening).
